Tasting Notes:   The deep color and rich extraction of Merlot character showcase the winemaker’s style and expression of this delicious Rogue Valley fruit.  The aromatic nose takes you back to August when blackberries are ripe and imbued on the breeze. This wine is full-bodied and velvety in the mouth with a clean lingering finish.   Bold flavors of dark chocolate and black raspberry with a soft and rich vanilla note make this a great food pairing wine.

Pairing Notes:  This oppulent Merlot will shine when paired with a rich seafood bouillabaisse or, consider a creamy polenta with roasted beef and vegetable ragu.
