2013 CALDWELL Merlot [clone 181]

Throw everything you think you know about Merlot out the window, then taste this. Exceptionally round, thick, dense and structured, it’s unusually complex and multidimensional for a variety that’s often spoken about in opposite terms. Sun-ripened plum, pomegranate, raspberry, mocha and white pepper shape its flavors, while refined, medium tannins and a savory black olive component structure its complexity.
