Nose
the ripe, red berry aromatics on the nose are laced with subtle
vanilla, white pepper and granite minerality.
Palate
Medium classic Merlot, with a bright
acidity that dances across the palate, carrying darker fruit characteristics, sweet oak,
kirsch liqueur and hints of espresso bean. The tannins are firm but not gritty and the
long, lingering finish is integrated with smoky sweet oak
Aging
20 months in oak, 54% new barrels,
68% French, 32% American
