Bedell Cellars Taste Red 2006

BN#247707 |
Here in this handsomely packaged bottle is a blend of estate fruit, mostly from the Bedell Vineyards and our Corey Creek vineyards. While mostly Merlot, a great deal of the character is emanating from the lush and aromatic Cabernet Franc and Syrah components, with the Cabernet Sauvignon lending structure and tannins. The wine is a solid purple black color, with a cool black plum, black raspberry, cedar, vanilla, earth and mineral flavor. The finish is tightly wound, firm and very clean—really suited to a grilled sausage dish on the deck, as well as roasted rack of venison with juniper. Taste will age gracefully for up to eight years, improving for the first several years.
