San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition.
“100 Outstanding Values of 2011” - Wine Spectator - December 31, 2011 2008 H3 Merlot Horse Heaven Hills
Named on the top 100 Outstanding Values of 2011. Previously scored 90 points
89 points - Wine Spectator - November 30, 2011 2009 H3 Merlot Horse Heaven Hills
Fresh and vibrant, this is lively with dark berry, mocha and tobacco flavors, finishing with a mild grip of tannins. Drink now through 2013.
“Best Value” - Wines Northwest - November 21, 2011 2009 H3 Merlot Horse Heaven Hills
Hands down the best value in Merlot that we have tasted, winemaker Juan Munoz Oca crafted this wine from Columbia Valley fruit with 30% whole berry to retain fruitiness in the finished wine. Aromas of ripe raspberry, spicy anise and earthy cedar lead to flavors of plums and cherries with elegant nuances of vanilla, malted chocolate and toasty oak.
“Burger-and-Wine match” - Food & Wine - November 10, 2011 2008 H3 Merlot Horse Heaven Hills
Basic ol’ hamburger (ketchup, mustard, lettuce, onion, pickle) Tanginess from the mustard, a little sweetness from the ketchup, a little sourness from the pickle, a whole lotta nothing from the lettuce. Plus meat. Star of picnics around the nation. I’d go with a not-too-tannic red. The plush, berry-rich 2008 Columbia Crest H3 Merlot ($12) would do the trick.
