Tortoise Creek 2012 The Revivalist Merlot (Clarksburg)

Country: US / The Revivalist
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Tortoise Creek / Clarksburg

This medium-bodied wine has aromas that suggest strawberry jam and maple syrup, and equally fruity and ripe flavors. Touches of vanilla and chocolate add a bit of unctuous complexity, and the mouthfeel is velvety.
