Peju Province Winery Merlot 2016 Review
Wow. This wine is Hot in the city tonight. It will tingle your nose hairs with its heat. It will soak your palate with its sweet and stick around and stain your teeth (did all that rhyme?). Man, this is boozy. There are still some merlot feels with soft tannin, but it’s all about the alcohol. This is a merlot for a Cult Cab ab lover. It’ll definitely age but that alcohol ain't going nowhere.
