Note di degustazione
The medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Merlot Reserve opens with blueberry compote, blackberry pie, mulberries and plum preserves with exotic spices and earth nuances. The palate is full-bodied and generous, chock-full of fruit and framed by firm tannins and a velvety texture, finishing lively and long. 600 cases produced.

Coming from Sonoma Valley and 100% varietal, the 2015 Merlot Reserve offers more plum, black cherry, and currant style fruit as well as medium to full body, an open, sexy texture, moderate mid-palate depth and loads of upfront charm and character. I don't see it evolving as gracefully as the Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, but it offers ample pleasure today and should keep for 7-8 years.
