Exposition: I am not a Merlot fan. Like Carignane, Merlot is a wine that is too often thrown into the bin described as generic red. Yet one of the greatest and most expensive wines in the world — Chateau Petrus — is 100% merlot. Go figure! While this Regan Vineyard Merlot is a bit underdeveloped now, from experience I know it will blossom in the future. A tad rough and tart in 2019, I know it will soften and provide complexity by 2021 and beyond.
