This Merlot exudes aromas of black cherries, raspberries, red plums and soft, sweet vanilla. It has a balanced palate of cherry, damson plum and berries with some new oak vanilla characteristics on the finish. Serve with antipasto, roast lamb or turkey.

A long, dry growing season has given the merlot amazing concentrated characters. The lower yielding vines have produced rich cherry, chocolate fruit weight with a complex finish.
