RATINGS

91Wine Spectator

Shows balance and good structure, with red currant and cedar aromas and firm flavors of cherry, mineral and spiced herb. Finishes with ripe but firm tannins.

90Wine Enthusiast

...scent of bacon grease giving a sense of rustic deliciousness, it's also soft and unctuous on the palate, medium to full bodied.

TYPE

Red Wine, Merlot

The Merlot grape is such a deep blue that it is named for the blackbird. It’s an early ripening grape and one of the primary varietals used In Bordeaux. Merlot is also grown in the "International style," which is harvested later to bring out more tannins and body.
