J Lohr's 2002 Paso Robles Los Osos Merlot has a lot to offer
anyone who dismisses Merlot, and this bottle is attractively
priced as well. The wine shows a deep ruby core that fades
to an orange/pinkish rim. The nose is treated to wonderfully
rich aromas of blackberry, black plum, raspberry and spice.
On the palate the ripe fruit flavors follow through with
lively acidity and are properly complemented with soft
tannins that are a touch powdery. The wine wraps up softly
balanced and tends to part with a nice finish that lingers
about while you wait for the next taste. |
