'07 Knapp Estate Bottled Merlot

[Innkeeper]

Opened our first '08 tonight. It carries the Finger Lakes app.; and not the Cayuga Lake one, nor is it estate bottled. Methinks that '08 was the spring that their vineyards got hit with hale during bud break, so they must have gotten some grapes from nearby friends.

Never-the-less it measures up to standands, but not quite as good as the '07. The Weenier who thought all FL reds were limpid, should try this one. Enjoyed it with rib eye steak over charcoal and mesquite, roasted baby Yukons, and sliced tomato (brought up from Georgia). Great all around.
