Kokomo Winery Pauline's Vineyard Merlot 2019 Review
Eric Miller and his growing partner Randy Peters are doing great things in Sonoma's Dry Creek Valley. Eric’s precision and skill are a sight to behold like this delicious single-vineyard Merlot. It has wonderful cured tobacco and earthy blueberries on the nose. The palate is soft and supple with a lithe tannic frame. The best part is the excellent finish that lingers until your next sip.
