title: Pascual Toso 2006 Maipu Vineyards Merlot (Mendoza)
description: A strong blast of oak comes across as resin and clove, and thus the wood doesn't augment but instead takes away from the fruit. Speaking of fruit, it's jumpy and tangy, with a finish that tastes of green olives. Overall it doesn't show proper balance or full development.
variety: Merlot
designation: Maipu Vineyards
