Deep flavors of cassis and blackberries on the palate. Firm but fine tannins and good length on the finish. Nice wine. A- 2002 Regusci Estate Napa Merlot-Reddish purple inj the glass. Red plums and berries ont he nose. A bit of toasted oak on the palate. Soft and low acid but a good match with the lamb as the red fruit component brought our the flavor of the lamb. "B" |
