A pretty #gsmblend from Merkin Vineyards / Caduceus (35%-35%-30%) - rose floral aromatics plus cherry and classic GSM spice. Sour cherry, some sweet fruit, soft tannins. A well made wine by JM Keenan.

Opaque in the dark, ruby in the light.
Soft brambled berrypatch on the nose and palate. Develops into a rich chocolate truffle.
Long finish with electricity to it.

Great aroma, gets better each time 2022. Like to try some earlier vintages

Definitely pulling for JMK and his AZ wine efforts but this is not for me. Too sweet.
