Peacock Ridge Merlot 2005
(12 months ago)Interesting nose of almonds, some wood, and red to dark fruits. Very silky, with big alcohol and big fruit. Sour cherries and spicyness. Nice long finish. Alcohol stands out a little bit, but overall a complex and pleasant wine.
Peacock Ridge Merlot 2005
(10 months ago)Smell of manure at the front, with nuts and dirt to round out the earthy nose. Very smooth, light and silky texture, with the taste of light blueberries on the front and slight woodiness on the finish, which is a little short. Pleasingly acidic. Wonderful to drink, and would definitely buy it again.
