Dark brambly berries, ripe black cherry, violets and cinnamon pair up with vanilla, mocha and sweet oak. The intensity on the palate holds its weight and fullness through the long, smooth finish. This is a Merlot that drinks like a Cabernet Sauvignon. The rich body and round, structured tannins will pair well with roasted meats.
This least expensive of Sterling?s latest Merlots stands up respectfully beside the winery?s more expensive bottlings, which makes it a good buy. It?s very dry, tannic and elegantly structured, with cherry and blackberry flavors enriched with sweet smoky oak. —Steve Heimoff,
