Well rounded, fruit-forward California Merlot, plums and anise notes, mild tannins (Clarendon Wines)

Nice soft flavors light compared to other Merlots, easy drinking good body soft tannins.
A good wine for those who are not into heavy Tannins but find a Pinot too soft on the palate.

Surprisingly good. 2016 Fuller body and flavor profile than you’ll expect!! Try the 2016 once.
