Winemaker’s Tasting Notes
The 2001 Twomey Merlot is a wine of highly expressive aromatics and beautiful balance and length. It has a dark ruby color and an explosive nose of black cherry, rose petals, dark chocolate and allspice. A rich attack is followed by a silky mouthful of black cherry fruit and an extremely long, fruity finish. Given proper cellaring, this Merlot will continue to give drinking pleasure until 2017.
