2000 Newton Merlot Unfiltered

Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Monday, December 31, 2007 - Drank 3 bottles at a New Year's eve party; about a dozen tasters; those who arrived early and got fresh from the bottle had negative reactions - too harsh, a little thin; then, after opening for less than an hour, the reaction flipped 100%; we're not sophisticated - but we know lush from thin, deep and complex from reedy. After opening, this wine is indeed a cab lover's merlot. Very good now, and no reason to think it will get a lot better over time - so consume, consume, consume.
