Sipping Fine Wine

Blend of 92% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec, deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruit, spice, cedar and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry fruits, baking spices, cacao and earthy notes. Fine tannins, opened nicely, long finish ending with notes of berry fruits espresso, vanilla, mineral oaky tones and earthy spice. Nice good now, will age well!! Pair this with a roast duck!

Opened it too young, but a great year for this outstanding CA merlot. A distinct burnt cinnamon edge, powdered chocolate, blackberry/blueberry. Not too heavy on the palate; a bit tannic. In FL, to Dad's memory.

2019 vintage. Earthy spicefest up front with waves of ultimately balancing mid-palate fruit and crunchy, finishing tannins. Power-laden Merlot. Lower your sails and salute when it passes by.
