Blend of 83% Merlot; 12% Cab Sauv, and 5% Petit Verdot, aged 17 months in French oak (30% new), very deep Ruby with rich aromas of dark ripe fruit and sweet spice notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, raspberry and plum with soft sweet vanilla spice, cacao and cedar. Fine tannins, long finish ending with balanced mineral wrapped in cacao and oak. A solid Merlot.

What a great gift. This thing was exceptional. It comes out swinging, full bodied and mature, but it has a lot of subtle fruitiness afterwards. Loved it.
