14 Hands Winery Reserve Merlot 2019 Review
14 Hands is inspired by the wild horses and nature of the American West. This focus comes through in their Reserve Merlot. It has a welcoming nose with aromas of leather, tobacco, and slight floral notes. The rich and concentrated palate is soft with a dried fruit center. The wine is developing nicely, so you can enjoy it now or hold onto it for a few years.
