2015 Tate Wine, Merlot Spring Street
2015 Tate Wines Merlot from St Helena, Napa Valley. Suzanne and David Tate have provided a robust Merlot. Dark ruby on the eyes with a medium to medium heavy viscosity. On the nose a dark fruit compote leads to a beautiful sweet & sour cherry and plum fruit with red licorice. The finish provides a hint of oak and cedar with soft tannins, pomegranate and medium acidity. Paired this evening with a marinated teriyaki stir fried steak with mushrooms, snow peas and green onion sliced long. The cherry balanced the teriyaki and acidity enveloped the steak. #tatewine #merlotwine #merlot #merlotme
