Lots of cherry and dried strawberry aromas with hints of chocolate. Full body, round tannins and a savory finish. Clean and very delectable.

Good deep ruby-red. Subdued nose hints at candied cherry, cola and oak spice. Sweeter and more chewy than the regular merlot, but with a strong oakiness to the dark cherry flavor. The wine's wood component gives the finish a slight bitter edge.
