Arietta Hudson Vineyards Merlot 2014 (750ml/12)
Tasting Notes
The latest vintage of Arietta Merlot Hudson Vineyards shows, in its youth, an alluring balance and finesse, with subtle blue
and black fruit notes married seamlessly with a supporting framework of French oak spice and well-constructed tannins.
While somewhat guarded initially, with time the wine reveals a latent power and mid- palate concentration that will certainly
develop with time in the glass, and with bottle age. The complexity delivered by these thirty-plus-year-old vines is remarkable,
and this latest vintage is just another example of how good this variety can be when grown in the right terroir.
