Sensual, velvety, spice box. Exceptional presence for such a young wine.

2012 Twomey Soda Canyon Ranch Merlot - Review (November 2024) The 2012 Twomey Soda Canyon Ranch Merlot remains a stellar example of Napa Valley elegance and richness. Its garnet hue hints at its depth, while the nose offers complex layers of ripe blackberry, licorice, graphite, dark chocolate, and cloves. On the palate, a velvety texture highlights blackberry and fruit compote, evolving into a refined finish of chocolate and fine-grained tannins. Balanced and luxurious, this wine pairs beautifully with roast duck, aged Gouda, or beef Wellington.

(16.5/20) Немного сдержанный джемовый аромат вишни, красной смородины, тоника из бузины. Довольно высокие кислотность и танинность. Танины немного суховатые. Вишня а шоколаде во вкусе. Приятное, очень калифорнийское вино. #decanterfwe
