Cherries are the stars here, with hints of spices and cloves, as this voluptuous Merlot reveals all of its charms. With great depth, this one will show off even more complexity with time. Yum!

Silver Medal, San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition,

91 Points, Connoisseurs' Guide (Mar. 2007) "Full, rich, deep and highly ripened smells of cherries, creamy oak and a slightly spicy, clove-like edge highlight this weighty Merlot. It has plenty palate weight and is perhaps a touch plump in feel, yet, as in its aromas, it is remarkably deep and rich in flavor and never lacks for personality."

This wine was recently featured in The California Wine Club's wine of the month club.
