2021 Columbia Crest Merlot Grand Estates

1/13/2024 - Psdycp wrote: 88 points

Ripe blue berries and plums with a touch of sweet licorice and star anise. Palate is fruit forward and clean. Medium-bodied structure, some tensions in the mid-palate. Tannins are somewhat chalky for now. Decanting for an hour for better harmony. A few more years of aging would be beneficial to the overall balance.

Nice pear, citrus and honey notes but the fruit is just minimal. A medium body wine that is fairly simple. There are better vintages of Grand Estate out there to be sought.

Solid as usual from CC. Lemon and citrus, with hints of oak and vanilla, and a round mouth feel that is their hallmark. Very enjoyable to quaff and a price point to cook with.

similar to past note, with the lemon showing through more prominently tonight. Medium oak, with a heft of acidity to balance it out. It had an austere note when opened, but was gone when revisited the glass 15 minutes later.

This vintage is disappointing. Previous vintages displayed so much more. The 2020 feels lighter with a not so pleasant taste I’m not a fan of the new look bottle and screw cap. Looks lone a cost savings move. Bring back 2018.

Flat in character and not very good. Low acidity and tannins. Grapey. Shockingly low QPR for Columbia Crest.

This has been my go to wine for the average weeknight for years. This vintage is far inferior to prior vintages. I have tried several bottles with the hope that it would get better. Sadly not to be… just flat and lifeless. None of the licorice, fruit and subtle oak from prior vintages. Not sure if they changed something in the process, but this is not what I have come to expect from Columbia Crest.

Nase: kräftiges Bouquet, sehr beerig und fruchtig, erinnert an reichhaltige Brombeermarmelade mit einem Hauch von Alkohol, was eine angenehme Intensität verleiht. Etwas Süsses schimmert auch durch.
Gaumen: vollmundig, kräftig, strukturierte Gerbstoffe, ausgewogene Säure, die eine gute Balance zu den Tanninen bietet. Langer, trockener Abgang. Beim gemütlichen, gedankenversunkenen Trinken wirkt der Nordamerikaner zugänglich, konzentriert, geschmeidig und schön süffig.
Fazit: Ein toller Übersee-Merlot, der nicht einfach nur süss und fett ist. Gut, diese Zeiten sind eigentlich vorbei, auch die Amerikaner haben festgestellt, dass die Mehrheit der Menschen lieber Wein trinkt anstatt Marmeladen-Saft. Zurück zum Wein: dieser Merlot hat alles, um glücklich zu machen. Er ist fruchtig, geschmeidig, trocken, ist bekömmlich und gefällt auf der ganzen Linie. Und preislich sicher fair unterwegs. Klar, Weine aus Übersee haben immer diesen Hauch von Umweltsünder wegen dem Transport per Flieger undso. Das muss jeder für sich selbst entscheiden. Der Wein an sich ist ein Kauf wert, ob First Class nach Europa geflogen oder nicht.

Drank way to early as this had only been in my cellar for 6 months or so. Very young and needed about 45 minutes to an hour in the decanter to open up. Fresh and lively, this wine had a dusty character and decent finish. I couldn't tell if it was the youth or just the grape characteristics but there were some dark fruits and a tart underpinning. I think with more age the elements could be more in balance. What I could pick out through the strong tannins was very good. I would say give it at least 5 years before opening if you have a bottle.

Ripe, dark fruit backed by sweet oak. A bit two-toned on both the nose and the palate, but approachable and agreeable to drink as a PnP.

A big, powerful Cabernet Sauvignon. Smoke and charred toffee on the nose. Bold red fruit flavour, but a bit too much all for my taste.

Dry, dark, ruby red cabernet that exceeds its price point. Well-rounded with excellent complexity and nicely balance fruit. Highly recommend at $10.
