Garnet color. Aromas and flavors of black cherry and black plum, cocoa nibs, mocha and baking spices, and brett with a velvety, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, intriguing, medium—length finish with nuances of black cherry and black plum, mocha and baking spice, new car leather, and cocoa and herbs with well-integrated, medium tannins and a light oak flavor. Everything you want from a ripe and juicy Merlot that also keeps itself in check with crisp acidity and balance; Cheers. ~ BTI/Tastings.com
