The 2003 Arboleda Merlot features dried red cherry and blackberry aromas with light floral accents that are characteristic of Merlot. On the palante this wine is very elegant, with well-integrated oak components expressed in delicate notes of mocha and toast. Balanced acidity and chalky tannins create good structure and length, while the spicy blackberry and red fruit flavours lead to a graceful finish. The aging potential of the 2003 Arboleda Merlot is estimated to be at least ten years under optimal cellaring conditions (under 16ºC/60ºF).

Good cherry and plum fruit appear on the palate, backed by noticeable coconut and chocolate. A structured wine with focus and ample acidity. Imported by Frederick Wildman & Sons, Ltd. — M.S.
