Wine Notes #2



Here are some notes on a wine we served tonight, the Clos Pegase 2002 Mitsuko's Vineyard Merlot. Not usually a big fan of California Merlot, but the BevMo clearance price of $16 made it quite an attractive buy.

Although not a terribly complex wine, this Merlot is a tasty and delicious quaff that goes down nicely. As to be expected, big, rich fruit flavors dominate. Again, even sitting in the bottle uncorked for a while, and then sitting in the glass, added a great deal. Highly recommended, particularly if you can get it at a reasonable price.
