Arietta Merlot Hudson Vineyards

The wine has undergone a significant improvement since its initial tasting in February 2019. It has become more harmonious and well-balanced, with a luscious and velvety texture. The tones are well-integrated, with a gentle and silky mouthfeel that is both pleasing and refined. The nose is powered by by clove and herbal notes, in contrast the impression reveals a rich and luxurious blue/purple fruitiness. The follow through is long and satisfying, with a mild feel of tannin. The ultimately note is one of elegance and refinement, with a pleasing and enjoyable finish.

Full bodied and rich wine with a supple texture, boasting a medley of blackberry, blueberry, and cranberry flavors, augmented by the understated nuances of oak, vanilla, and tobacco. The tannins are still sharp, but the wine's aging potential is evident, with an elegant lasting impression and a body of flavor that will only continue to unfold over time.

Decadent and nuanced wine with a deep, supple texture, augmented by a elegant yet alluring bouquet of dense fruit, spice, and mild nuances of warm, aromatic spices.
