Classic and refined is the approach we take when crafting Merlot. We love varietal expression and this one has it in spades. The nose opens with notes of blueberry, cedar, carob, and baking spices. The palate is lush yet well-structured with flavors of black fruit compote, milk chocolate, oak spice, and cigar box. The tannins are evident but integrated and refined, giving it a long, lingering finish.
