This fruit-forward Merlot has depth and smoothness in spades. It’s the perfect any-occasion red, with a crowd-pleasing combo of luscious red fruit, chocolate, spice and oak. Heady cocoa and coffee aromas swirl from the glass, leading to a berry-rich palate that is soft and inviting. Firm, yet elegant, tannins support a backbone of toasty oak and a long, supple finish.
