WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This wine delivers a full-bodied experience with layered flavors of chocolate, cherries, and spice, balanced by smooth tannins and vibrant energy.
100% Merlot
TASTING NOTES:
Burly aromas of fresh cut pine, marzipan, chocolate chip cookies and mint in this 100% Merlot. A sweet, well rounded, succulent surprise. A layer cake of Saint-Émilion complexity with soft tannins, German chocolate cake and red cherries mid palate and some spicy candy on the finish. Zinging with energy and flavors. Young and spunky.
- Forbes, 95 pts.
An impressive, rich wine, this has great fruitiness as well as solid, firm tannins. It obviously has a good future of opening out to the fruit and tannins. Drink from 2024.
