Dark Ruby with ripe berry fruit and herb spice aromas. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry and blackberry with leather and cacao notes. Rustic fine tannins, medium finish ending with food and spicy character. Drink now no aging benefit.

A pleasant easy drinking Merlot. We looked for it after a mention in the WSJ. Enjoyed it on a camping trip. Flavors of plum, cherry and vanilla.

Red fruits, flavor is not subtle, like drinking a liquid ruby.
