Jackson - Triggs 2006 Delaine Vineyard Merlot
The rainy harvest of 2006 created a lot of underripe, green-tasting reds from merlot and other Bordeaux varieties, making the ripeness in this example all the more remarkable. This shows lovely elegance and smoothness, thanks to the difficult technique of fermenting part of the wine in barrels, a softer environment than stainless steel tanks. Wine Rack.
