2004 Shafer Merlot

Community Tasting Note

88 Points

Thursday, October 5, 2006 - Tasting note from memory. A young fruit rich merlot, missing, however, an overall balance and concentration in fruit that I would expect at this point. While drinking fine now, I’m not sure it has the balance to age.. I’ve come to the conclusion that these merlots are better young than aged, I have not had many stellar examples of an older Shafer Merlot that has improved past three or so years.
