OS Winery 2012 Sonas Merlot (Yakima Valley)

Country: US / Sonas
Variety: Merlot Washington
Winery: OS Winery / Yakima Valley

This wine suggests green, savory herbs along with cherry and currant. It’s elegant in style, velvety in feel, and delivers good concentration to the fruit flavors plus barrel notes (20% new French) on the lingering finish. The variety gets lost with the herbal notes taking over, but it still offers enjoyment.
