Magistrate 2011 Limited Production Merlot (Central Coast)

Country: US / Limited Production
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Magistrate / Central Coast

This is a sound, everyday Merlot with some special qualities that give it an extra point or two. It’s dry and smooth in tannins, with layers of cherries, blackberries, currants and licorice. Not likely to age well, so give it a little time to breathe and drink now.
