Trentadue Merlot 'La Storia' Alexander Valley 2021 2021 brand_Catherine et Pierre Breton black-cherry-flavored wineThe main aromas of the 2021 Trentadue La Storia Merlot and flavors are of dark cherry, plums, a bit of black licorice and herbs. The new oak barrels contribute a touch of vanilla, brown sugar, cocoa dust, and toast. On the mouth the wine is soft and viscous, balancing the acidity and the tannins well for such a young wine. The finish is long and soft with suggestion of sweetness backed by ripe tannins.
