Gordon Brothers Merlot Columbia Valley Estate Grown 2007
Member Review by jtryka:
The wine is a deep, inky purple, almost black at the center of the glass, typical of a classic Merlot (and don't give me any of your sideways comments!). The nose is very attractive, with notes of black fruit overlaid with some nice cedar, leather and a hint of cocoa powder. The taste is classic Merlot, but with a bit of a twist, as it's somewhat lighter at the outset, with flavors of blueberry and raspberry, but then it really transforms midpalate with some dark chocolate and dusty limestone. The tannins are very nicely integrated leading to a velvety and extremely dry finish that seems to last a minute or more.
