Deep purple hue. Tantalizing aromas of ripe cherry, blueberry and black plum. Complexed with a hint of vanilla oak but very vibrant. The mouth has immediate fine-grained tannins and a lively complexity. This is a lovely expression of Alexander Valley Merlot. Flavors are rich and fleshy, with luxurious layers of black berry, red licorice, fig compote, blueberry and crushed rose petal flowing to a long, elegant finish. Lots of tension and totally fruit driven.

Aromas of fresh herbs, candied cherry and fresh-ground coffee mingle on the nose of this wine. The palate is more structured than expected, with a wealth of age-worthy tannin that frames a palate ripe with raspberry and cocoa flavors.
