The 2000 Girolamo, a Merlot, seems to have suffered a bit from the heat of the vintage. The nose is warm and alcoholic, the plum fruit and chocolate of the aromas expansive and penetrating, the texture on the palate round, but there is a bit of heat on the finish and a slight dryness to the tannins. Drink: 2005-2010. Importer: Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620

A varietal Merlot that is dark, masculine and pure, even if it stumbles toward raisiny and syrupy. What keeps it in motion is the brightness of the palate, where cherry, plum and chocolate dance in harmony. Probably best to drink soon, which will maximize vibrancy. ——M.S.(9/1/2006)—— 89
