title: Milbrandt 2006 The Estates Merlot (Wahluke Slope)
description: Dark, tannic and toasty, it's a rich mouthful of wine. The fruit is moderately ripe, with light berry flavors; but the toast and chocolate and coffee barrel flavors add a lot of weight and punch. Nice winemaking from Gordy Hill turns out a delicious wine.
variety: Merlot
designation: The Estates
