Note di degustazione
The 2017 Merlot Hudson Vineyards is another upfront, plump, sexy red in the lineup. Based on 100% Merlot, it has loads of plums, ripe black cherries, graphite, and dried herb aromatics, medium to full body, good acidity, and a balanced, clean finish. Drink it over the coming decade.

The 2017 Merlot Hudson Vineyards (100% Merlot) is deep garnet-purple colored and features warm cassis, baked plums and stewed black cherries notes with hints of mocha, black olives and dried herbs. Full-bodied, it has compelling tension and a good core of muscular fruit, supported by rugged tannins, finishing long and earthy.
The 2017 Merlot Hudson Vineyards is open-knit, racy and seductive. Red cherry and floral notes show a good bit of primary intensity. It will be interesting to see if the 2017 gains a bit more depth and complexity over the course of its aging. Today, the Merlot is not as expressive as is typically the case.
