Barnard Griffin 2005 Merlot - Red Wine
Nov 24th, 2008 |
Red Wine by Barnard Griffin from Columbia Valley, Washington. This 2005 vintage Merlot is a worthy successor to the award winning 2004. Aromas of black cherries and red currants dominate the nose. There is a good dose of medium toasted European oak barrels. One can see a great vintage in the 2005 with moderate tannins and good acid. This wine is drinking well now and has some punch worthy of 5-8 years of aging.
