Deep red in the glass, this sultry wine shows dark berry fruit on the nose followed by black current, plum, with an undertone of lavender and allspice.  Rich and velvety on the palate, exhibits full and smooth tannins, yet maintains a youthfulness.  Plum and pluot re-emerge on the palate carried by undertones of rhubarb and hints of nutmeg.

Aromas of white peach, lemon curd, fresh grapefruit and lime blossoms, with hints of sea spray and toasted almonds. The medium-bodied palate is wonderfully crisp and intense, with bags of citrus fruit and a satiny texture to counter all that vivacity.

This robust Merlot will delight Cabernet Sauvignon lovers!  The nose offers layers of blueberry, raspberry and cherry.  The palate is elegantly structured with mouth-watering tannins and sprightly, well-balanced acidity.  The fruit-forward berries up front reemerge on the palate with savory undertones of basil and rosemary.
