California Merlot

JS94 This is really rich and decadent with sweet-tobacco, blackberry and blueberry aromas that follow through to a full body with rich, juicy tannins. giving nice tension to the wine.

Raspberry, black cherry, strawberry, blackberry and huckleberry are all present yet there is no overcrowding, as if one fruit continuously shifts into another, mercurial and whimsical.

Huge yet soft on the palate, a flood of goodness is framed in the gentle grip of soft tannin. This is an integrated, balanced, and structured 100% Cabernet Sauvignon now and for the ages.

Black currant, Morello cherry, and just-ripe black mission fig dance with the aromas of sage, candied violets, star anise, and black truffle. The palate is dense and compact with incredible structure. Layers of complex black and red fruit fill the mouth,

The wine is clear and bright. The nose is very open, expressive. Black fruit nose first and sweet spices.
