Wine Review: This wine opens with a very pleasant inviting bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied and quite flavorful and tasty. This wine is the best wine tried from this winery. The finish is dry and lingers for quite some time. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: In its fourth vintage, this meritage is a carefully selected blend of 75% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Malbec. On the nose, there is a harmonious pairing of sweet vanilla bean and toasty spice. Balanced structure emits intense flavors of raspberry, blackberry and dark chocolate. Mid palate, this elegant, classy wine is dense and full leading to a soft finish with a burst of black cherry tobacco and black tea. This family favorite will age beautifully for many years to come.
