Tasting - Pollack Merlot

Name: Pollack Merlot
Variety: 100% Merlot
Region: Central Virginia
Country: USA
Year: 2009
Price: $20


Winery Review:
This vintage displays a concentrated expression of dark cherries, rich chocolate and a hint of oaky sweetness. The wine is fruit forward but still has great structure. With a rich garnet hue, it has cherry and oak aromas with notes of flint and nutmeg, sweet tannins and an enticing velvet finish.


My Review:
This wine has a complex nose of dark fruits.  It had a great balanced taste, very smooth without strong tannins.  I went and bought a glass of this to eat with a plate of cheese and fruit and it was delicious.
