Merlot is a triumph over adversity. The effort taken for the grape to survive, and the care given it, leads to greater concentration and complexity, especially here.
AMUSINGS - What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Longer. Weightier. More tannic. Merlot is a hard grape to grow. You don’t bank on its survival. But when it survives, it thrives. And all that focus. All that grizzled determination to see out the frosts and the pecks of blackbirds, is now channelled into a grape. And in that grape is density, darkness, and length.
