2013 Merlot

2013 Merlot

Bright rhubarb fruit on the nose but surprisingly full in the mouth, juicy and spicy with hints of fall leaves, charcoal embers, and dark chocolate along with herbal notes of thyme, bay leaf and sage. This rustic and savory wine calls to mind an old-soul Pomerol. Time will be this wine’s friend as it displays considerable resilience for aging.
