Critical Acclaim:
Brisk saline notes run through the 2010 Merlot Perrone Historic Vineyard Series. It is fascinating to compare the Perrone to the Estate Merlot. Here, the aromatics have more lift, while the expression fruit relies on finesse rather than juiciness. A feminine, delicate Merlot, the Perrone boasts tons of personality and pure class.
