Red Wine by Gundlach Bundschu from Sonoma County, California. The 2003 Rhinefarm Merlot offers dusty cherry, cranberry, dried sage and allspice aromas. From the smooth entry, red currant and berry flavors prevail, as the well-integrated tannins and firm acidity carry the elegant structure through to a long, focused finish. Delicious upon release, this structured Merlot will benefit from five years of cellaring and continue to age gracefully for 10 to 12 years. Blend: 96% Merlot,2% Cabernet Franc, 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Malbec
