Wilridge 2009 Estate Mélange Rouge Red (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Estate Mélange Rouge
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Washington
Winery: Wilridge / Columbia Valley (WA)

This five grape Bordeaux-style blend has a sharp, spicy aroma, a strong suggestion of clove. The fruit is quite light and tastes of strawberries, but quickly is overtaken by the tannins and the barrel flavors. Drink soon.
