The grapes are harvested from east and west facing vineyards, situated on decomposed granite soils..
Mature vineyards yield opulent fruit with plum, rich blackberry and mocha flavors. Framed by generously-rounded tannins and spiciness from maturation in French oak, this wine is seductive from start to finish. |
“Loads of spice-laden black cherries and cinnamon can be found in the aromatics of the 2003 Merlot. A plush, plummy, medium-bodied wine, it bursts on the palate with seductive black fruit and spice flavors . . .”
