It’s mandatory to use the word ’smooth’ when describing Merlot though of course, so few of them are. This one from King River Estate actually is. You need a subscription to The Wine Front to see this part of the post ...

This bottle was given to me a while ago from Pindar when I was out visiting with Pindar and Les. I remember him telling me to wait to have this. And that I should share it with my family over a nice meal. Well we finally got around to it and it was worth the wait. Let me again start off by saying that 2007, on Long Island was one of the hottest on record. It was the ideal season for growing grapes and the ripening of grapes. The wine’s that you taste from this vintage on Long Island will not be like any other. This is a banner year yet at the same time it is considered an anomaly, by some. I am leaning in that direction of the 2007 an anomaly year for Long Island wine, or 2007 is an extraordinary vintage. That being said, this is up in my top 5 for Merlot’s from the 2007 vintage. I have tasted about a dozen, some from the barrel and some unreleased in bottle, but others, I am still waiting to try and some are not released yet. On the nose, I was picking up some smoky, woodsy, and tobacco notes upon open. It needed some time to awaken in the glass. After a while I was picking up notes of cherry and plum with hints of cedar, vanilla and toffee that gave way to a freshly roasted coffee bean. The taste was a bit tannic at first, and needed some time to open. Once it did, I was picking up some blueberry cobbler, vanilla and cherry. There were some deep dried herbal notes, like mint and some eucalyptus, that matched well with an earthy mineral ...

[ Water into Wino ] After passing up a $60 red from Anwilka and a $40 red blend from Meinert, I found a $20 Merlot Cabernet blend from Uva Mira. With the stars aligned for a wallet-to-bottle connection - and by stars I mean a wine labeled as Stellenbosch, a decent score by Steve Tanzer and the importer being Michael Skurnik - I brought this bottle home. ...

2004 Artesa Merlot Appellation: Sonoma/Napa blend Tasting Notes: 100% Merlot, 74% from Sonoma, 26% from Napa. 13.9% ABV. Bought this several months ago at a dinner with the winemaker after having the 2005 Merlot, which knocked my socks off. Pretty dark violet. This nose is a little candy, cherry, red berries, a touch of vanilla/oak. On the palate, the red raspberry and cherry fruit comes through along with a little pepper, some clove; fantastic tannins, a bit of oakiness, but not too much, and acid. Full body, smooth. Very food friendly. Big for a Merlot, but not as new world as you might think. Wonderful lingering finish. Delicious. Unbelievable for the price. Might have some time left on it too, I might hold the other bottle for a while longer. Rating: 4/5, 17/20, 93/100 Price: $20 at The Wine Market A note on ratings: I use the 100 point rating for Cellartracker, even though my palate is still developing. As a statistics geek, I know that the variability in scores works itself out as the number of scores increases. However, my score may not be yours or Robert Parker’s, it is simply a subjective value based on my palate. I much prefer to use a 5 point (or star, or whatever you want to call it) scale, as it more represents my reaction to wine, which is more simple than a 100 point scale represents. I like the 20 point scale as the more detailed score. On this site, I will provide all three, although the most meaningful are the 5 and 20 ...
