"The 2021 Merlot provides a delightful blend of dark berry fruit, black plum, and savory spice notes on the nose. The palate compliments with notes of blackberry, black cherry, toffee and mocha notes, alongside more subtle hints of graham cracker crust and holiday mulled spices, from the well-integrated oak. Medium bodied with balanced acidity and soft tannins, the deep ruby hue leads to ripe and rich berry flavors supported by a velvety-textured finish that is long, lush, and mouthwatering." —winemaker
