Score 87/100 · Drink 2001-2012, Robert Parker, Dec 2000

The 1997 Merlot Estate is backward and tannic. This dark ruby/purple-colored Merlot exhibits abundant muscle, structure, and depth, and thus requires 1-2 years of cellaring. It should keep for 12 or more years. Although obviously ripe and rich, the tannin dominates at present. Tel. (707) 963-7108; Fax (707) 963-7595
