Score 95/100 · Drink 2013-2023, Robert Parker, Oct 2013
The 2010 Merlot Fortuna Vineyard’s deep purple color is accompanied by sweet aromas of jammy confit of black cherries, licorice and a touch of smoke. Loads of black cherry, mocha and white chocolate flavors emerge from this full-bodied, opulent, California version of an extravagantly rich Pomerol. This killer wine is about as good as Merlot can be, not just in California, but anywhere. Consume it now and over the next 10 years. Readers should check out Turnbull Wine Cellars without delay. Tel.
