Deep garnet in color, the 2005 Terra Rossa Merlot still looks and smells remarkably youthful on the nose of blackberry preserves and dried mulberries embellished by hints of spice cake, Indian spices, cardamom and menthol. Big, full-bodied and voluptuous, all of the rich flavors are enlivened by crisp acidity and supported by medium-firm, velvety tannins throughout the long and spicy finish. Drink now to 2018+. No known USA importer.
