Columbia Crest 2005 Grand Estates Merlot - Red Wine

Red Wine by Columbia Crest from Columbia Valley, Washington. Blend: 94% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Cabernet Franc This complex, artisanally crafted wine offers classic Merlot spice, ripe cherry fruit and cocoa aromatics which persist on the palate. The balance of wood and black fruits creates a velvety, seductively smooth finish. - Ray Einberger, Winemaker
