This blend of 50% Merlot & 50% Cabernet Franc was hand selected by our winemaker from our premium barrels. Aged 14 months in French Oak, this Meritage blend has an open & expressive nose showcasing black cherries & blackberries. The aromas continue to open up with spicy notes of peppercorn & cedar. The mouthfeel is balanced with velvet ripe tannins. The palate opens on much of the same as the nose; dark berries, dark chocolate, fresh peppercorn and a long sultry finish.
