Medium ruby red. A savory, earthy bouquet gives way to abundant dark red fruited flavors accented by tobacco and dried herbs. The mouth feel is suave but firmly structured, finishing with long lasting richness.

” Dark ruby. The Merlot shows earth and dark fruit scents. It’s full on the palate
with good breadth and sustained flavors, finishing with good length.
A well balanced wine, it shows a sense of terroir that’s unusual at this price level. ”
