Description

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:

Medium ruby in color showing a bouquet of cherry and black tea accented by subtle sweet vanilla French oak and a fetching blueberry compote note.  The palate is generous and soft on approach, leading with supple cherry fruit and transitioning to richer boysenberry flavors on the mid-palate where the medium-firm tannins, caramel, and notes of clove and black pepper come into play. The vintage’s fresh acidity lends structure to this silky expression of Merlot leaving a lingering, savory finish.

TASTING NOTES:

A huge value, this wine proves Merlot is back: It’s equal parts smooth, rich, and juicy, with a luscious, ripe, and beautifully balanced palate. Deep and neatly structured with nice hints of sweet berries.
