This is a Merlot for Cabernet lovers.

It is vibrant, bold yet balanced with great aromas and spicy notes of cinnamon and black pepper. A hint of leather surrounds the acidity and sweetness of bright strawberry.

2016 was a steady vintage with few heat spikes. The daytime highs were cooler than average, creating a longer hang time on the vine, which allowed more complexity to develop in the vineyard.
