| Vintage: | 2008 |
| Wine Type: | Red Wine |
| Varietal: | Merlot |
| Appellation: | Paso Robles |
| Alcohol %: | 13.9 |
| Tasting Notes: | Wild Horse makes its Merlot from Paso Robles, where vineyards west of the Santa Maria River contribute rich, ripe tannins and sites to the east provide a different array of aromas and flavors. When the fermented juice is blended together and aged for a year in a mix of French and Hungarian oak, the result is a wine full of spicy black and red fruit flavors enhanced by delightful acidity. Soft but structured tannins make this very enjoyable, easy-drinking wine one to look forward to for tomorrow’s dinner or for dinner sometime in 2015. |
