Tasting Notes
This opaque and dark purple Merlot leads into expressions of high dark toned fruit, spicy cayenne pepper, and fresh cranberries with hints of coco, cherry, and anise. Pleasing scents of wet rock stones, minerals, and damp soil expresses the true mountain terroir. The great weight and structure with notes of cranberry and raspberry interact brilliantly with a long finish.
