The medium to dark ruby-colored 1995 Merlot has creamy, ripe Italian tomato aromas, and a structured, medium-bodied character. This wine reveals excellent ripeness, with loads of chocolate and mocha-imbued red and black cherries that are found throughout its flavor profile and long finish. Presently luscious, creamy, and verging on opulent, this wine possesses the requisite balance, fruit, and tannin for aging. Anticipated maturity: now-2005.Tel: 516-734-6010
