Spices in the scent with a tangy finish. It’s okay.

I love the smokiness to the wine. Perfect for cooler weather.

I tasted this last year at the winery and I've been saving it. We finally opened it for a special beef tenderloin dinner. It has a very earthy flavor. I love it.

Full body. More pallet than nose. Winemaker's tasting notes: "Smokey cedar and black fruits on the nose, this extraordinary wine greets your palate with smoke, black cherries and dried dark fruit. Note of anise round out this Merlot with balanced tannins, and a creamy, smokey finish."
