Tasting #9 - Merlot

Name: Bay Bridge
Variety: Merlot
Region: Livermore and Ripon, California
Country: USA
Year: 2012
Price: $4

Review: Deep ruby color. Red berry, fruit gum, and spiced nut aromas. A brisk entry leads to a fruity medium body of berry jam and pencil flavors. Finishes with a quick powdery tannin fade.

Mr Review: A dark red color with a warm feeling on the nose and hints of cherry and spices. Light flavors at first open to cherries, raspberries, and cranberries. It finishes on an acidic and mildly dry note that does not linger long.

This wine was tasted without food.
