2002 Robert Sinskey Vineyards Merlot

2002 Robert Sinskey Vineyards Merlot

I consider this to be a strong, spicy wine.. heavy.. made from certified organic grapes.

I think this one is worth a try!

since i really can't tell what my mouth is telling me, yet.. here's what the sinskey site says...

"A deep sniff of this wine rewards your nose with a bouquet garni of thyme, bay leaf and licorice mingled with the deeper scent of ripe blackberry. Senses merge as you taste the nearly opaque purple velvet tint with your eye. Upon first sip, the wine suggests an herbed jam of dark summer berries. Underpinning the rich fruit are well-developed silky tannins, mouthwatering acidity, and a smooth, indulgent texture that echoes its velvety color. Quite simply, this Merlot is delicious!"

yeah.. what they said...

Yeah I would agree with others that this is good for "summer drinking".. nothing remarkable either way.. which is fine.

I had a glass with dinner right after running 7 miles.... probably anything would have worked at that point but i'll have to say that this one is good for an $8 bottle.

I'd give this one a 3.5 if that were an option...

Hit the spot after a long and winding week.

I don't know what tannins are yet but I'm having fun!
