Robert Hall 2006 Hall Ranch Meritage (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Hall Ranch
Variety: Meritage California
Winery: Robert Hall / Paso Robles

Rich in smoky oak and ripe fruit, showing powerful, dry flavors of blackberries, black cherries, sour cherry candy and sweet herbs. The tannins are a bit scoury and edgy, like sandpaper on the palate. Should mellow over the next 2–3 years, but it’s not an ager.
