Tasting notes
The 2009 Villa Fidelia wraps around the palate with serious depth and power. Smoke, incense, tar, licorice and dark cherries flesh out in this medium-bodied, pliant Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc blend. All the elements are in the right place, but the 2009 isn't as viscerally thrilling as some previous vintages have been.
