Tasting Notes

Bright and cheery, fruit-forward and smooth, this blend of Cab and Merlot offer a balanced tour of their strengths; fruit, floral and herbaceous delights. The acids and tannins harmonize to deliver bold structure and a clean finish, with a hint of tartness and tingly sensation, inspiring you to reach for another sip. Easy to pair with a Chef’s Salad, cheesy pasta or salmon with garlic and butter.
