"Winery: Gary Farrell Score: 87
Wine: Merlot Sonoma County Hillside Vineyard Selection 1999 Price: $29
Country: California
Region: Sonoma
Issue: Jun 15, 2002
A compact, well-focused, Bordeauxish rendition, with excellent structure, tight cedary oak and similarly tight currant, olive, herb and tobacco flavors. Best to cellar short term (or decant), given its tannic structure. Best from 2003 through 2009. 1,196 cases made. (JL)
