The Wine Whisperer travels outside the Central Coast to find this Ursa major Merlot 2004, from El Dorado County.This fine Merlot is just the ticket for you Merlot lovers out there – and I know you’re still out there. And this one will impress anyone who loves good wine. Rich and lusciously ripe, this beautifully balanced red offers big blackberry and briary berry aromas and flavors highlighted with spice notes.
It’s perfectly ripe but doesn’t go over the top to raisin flavor land... and the delightful finish lingers long on your tongue. Made by husband and wife winemakers, Greg Stokes and Deborah Elissagaray, who are produce consistently impressive wines. It’s quite delici
ous on its own and yet complements lamb chops, grilled steak or a great hamburger. I spotted it at Spencer’s Markets for just $15.00. Here about it in the Wine Whisperer's own words just click on the radio or his portrait.
