"Tin Roof knocked it out of the ballpark last year�Dry and balanced, it features flavors of black cherries, currants, cola and licorice, with a rich streak of smoky oak" Vineyards / Tin Roof 2006 Merlot was produced from a blend of North coast and Central Coast Grape. Merlot thrives in these cool-climate regions, especially in moist alluvial soils where it develops the bright fruit and soft tannins that make the variety so appealing to premium wine lovers. Winemaking / Boldly flavored, smoothly textured and unusually complex, Tin Roof wines are designed to please wine lovers seeking distinctive varietal character. Blended with small amount of Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel, our 2006 Merlot was fermented in stainless steel tanks at warm temperatures to fully extract color, flavor and tannin, then aged in French and oak to soften and mature its lush fruit flavors. Winemaker's notes / "Our 2006 Merlot offers ripe, luscious black cherry and plum fruit aromas and flavors characteristic of the Merlot variety, enhanced by hints of tobacco, herbal spice and chocolate. With smooth, supple tannins and a long, rich finish, it pairs with grilled red meats, herb-roasted chicken, pork chops, red-sauced pastas and flavorful hard cheeses." Melissa Bates, Winemaker

1 out of 51 out of 51 out of 51 out of 51 out of 5 The '06 Ain't the '05, 11.29.2009
Reviewer: motordavid (Naples, FL)

Maybe the '05 was a bargain anomaly...the '06 I had, (3 diff. blts), is watery thin, almost noseless and jug red in taste. Comparable to most of the junk merlots of the past decade. Plowed through almost 3 cases of the '05, and it still drinks well; the '06 is barely related, imo. Good Luck. motordavid
