The 2014 Del Dotto 'Rutherford Estate' Merlot is a dense and brooding wine. This wine opens with gorgeous aromatics of red cherry, spicebox, anise and milk chocolate. There are flavors of black cherry, black olive, milk chocolate and toffee. The mouthfeel and density of the wine makes this very hard to resist. This will age gracefully over the course of the next decade. (Best 2016-2026) - October, 2016 (OB)
