Lifted red fruits envelop the senses, inviting the nose to Bing cherries and plums. A cacophony of young, red opulent fruits widen along the palate, revealing a stately Merlot rooted in elegance and power. Updrifts of red cassis carry the melody, gently intertwined with grilled sage, savory mountain herbs, and rosemary. The fervor of dimple tannins that define the mid-palate gradually fade into the finish, waning gently to compel the next sip.
