Beautiful Napa Valley merlot! Presents as 3-5 yrs younger than its age tonight. Strong anise and pepper nose, just short of penetrating now, definitely in its secondary stage. Picks up grippy black cherry on the medium-bodied palate. Typically very underrated stuff!

Love these old Marilyn Merlots. Please do not judge. Nothing to see here, keep walking folks. I still consider these as secondary red wine with impressive green spice and black cherry, no signs of fatigue or tiredness.

십년이 지난 와인이며 메를로 공부용 와인임
플럼향이 많이 나며, 블랙과실향이 지배적임
중간이상 산도와 탄닌 바디감이 느껴지며
이틀 후 마셨는데 산화가 꽤 많이 되었음
