title: Harbes Family Vineyard 2014 Proprietor's Reserve Barrel Fermented Merlot (North Fork of Long Island)
description: It's hard to choose a favorite amongst Harbes' 2014 Merlots but this one stands out for its finessed body and subtle spice and licorice tones. Intensely ripened black plum and berry flavors are concentrated but balanced, offset by brisk acidity and fine-grained persistent tannins. The finish is long with a meandering smoky tone.
variety: Merlot
designation: Proprietor's Reserve Barrel Fermented
