Dark red color to it. On the nose I get chocolate, black currants, raspberry. On first sip, lots of cherry and blackberry, and smooth finish. Getting some vanilla, and earthy tones. Subtle spice notes. One the smoothest merlots I've had.

Red berry fruits. Liquorice and anise with lots of fresh minerality. Very youthful still. Yum!

Red licorice and spicy notes with jammy but not too heavy berry flavours.
