Orrando Merlot 2007
Lodi, California
Winegrowers often like Merlot for its ability to ripen early, before rainy autumn weather is able to wreak havoc on the harvest. Winedrinkers appreciate Merlot for its soft character and fruit-forward nose. However, Lodi’s winemakers don’t have to worry much about rain – it’s California, right? – and that means their fruit can develop all of its expression without too much worry.
The Orrando Merlot answers the call with plum, blackberry and black raspberry notes, plus a classic touch of smoke, all in a medium-bodied, mildly tannic package.
