2003 William Hill Merlot

This bottle got finished over the course of three evenings while reading a book. Unlike many of wines that end up with on the counter overnight with a stopper, I made sure to finish this bottle. So many bottles end up being discovered several days later and suffer from not being interesting enough to avoid pouring the rest out in the sink.

I found this wine to have a very masculine nose. Hints of black currant, oak, olives, and plum.

Goes well with a Richard Dawkin's book.

Full body, smooth, and one of those special wines that my mom pulls out when I visit.

It seemed rather acidic and fairly harsh.
