    Lindemans 2003 Reserve Merlot (South Australia)

    This is a relatively small-lot wine (under 10,000 cases were imported), and maybe the extra attention it received helped, because this is a decent value. Black cherry and cassis notes show nice purity, while hints of mint and vanilla add dimension and some dusty tannins on the finish give it a modicum of structure. Drink now.
