A single vineyard wine fronted mountain usually the first red wine they pick. Has a rather strong earthy and herbal component to the bouquet dark plum and cherry fruit notes of dark coco. A very smooth and silky wine on the tongue luscious fruit with a firm hand of acidity holding things together. Finish 45+ excellent +

This a beautiful rich merlot. Drinks like a Cabernet Sauvignon . I am impressed! Rich buttery mouthfeel. Dark rich fruity flavors. Balanced in every way! Try it! You will not be disappointed.
