Occasional wine note
Merlot is our jam and this one is delicious. It's an easy drinker, but that does not mean that it doesn't have a fair bit of complexity. Layers of ripe plum and dark cherries, baking spices, and some underlying herbal notes, with great tannin and a velvety finish that is so satisfying.

James Suckling
This is more spicy with notes of cedar, bark and nut shell with ripe red and dark berries in the background. Medium- to full bodied, linear and tense with succulent fruit and polished tannins. Compact and chalky finish.
