Earthy, balanced, fragrant.
This Merlot was cellared for 12 months in oak barrels before bottling.
Cherry and black raspberry aromas mingle with vanilla, licorice and baking spices. It's more restrained on the palate; earthy notes, dusty plums, spice and tealeaf flavours linger on the finish. Good balance, a well-constructed wine.
Pair:: Beef, lamb, hearty pastas, stews, gourmet thin-crust pizzas

Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb
