The rewards and frustrations of home winemaking

One Year Plus Tasting of Cab Merlot

Still very foamy. Decanted, tasted shortly after decanting. Nose of sour cherry and herbs. Tart flavors of cherry, strawberry, raspberry with nicely integrated oak toastiness. Coming together very nicely.ย  Quite drinkable now, but I think time will make it even better.ย  It still tastes very young.
