Merlot - Santa Ema 2005

SANTA EMA MERLOT 2005

**Juicy and fuity wine that is lower in tannic bitterness and higher in alcohol than Cabernet Sauvignon - blackcurrant, black cherry and mint flavors are typical flavors**

MODERATORS' COMMENTS:
1. John says: Tastes of Earth and Leather.
2. Jennifer says: Aromas of decaying leaves, fruity (blackberrry and cherry) with earthy aftertaste.
