TASTING NOTE: Medium ruby in colour, this Merlot features light smoke, raspberry and plum aromas. It's dry, medium full-bodied with persistent red- and black-fruit flavours almost like a sweet fruitcake, along with a subtle earthy character, medium tannins and a crisp fruity finish. Pair it with rare roast beef. (VINTAGES panel, Feb. 2008) |
