50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot

Dark berries, milk chocolate, and cassis on the nose followed by a smooth, balanced mouth feel & soft tannins on the finish make this a very approachable red wine.

Of the many Bordeaux-style wines we produce, our Cabernet/Merlot blend is the most approachable. The intent of our "Cab/Merlot" is to broaden our flavor spectrum of full-bodied red wines. This wine takes the softest qualities of the two varietals and blends them together to produce a young and appealing wine that retains some of the tannin from its parent wines.

Our Cabernet/Merlot presents a more youthful approach to a red wine. The Merlot component adds bright fruit qualities, while the Cabernet tops it with richer fruit and "bursts" of tannin. The resulting blend is an exquisite array of full textures with wonderful fruit highlights.

We age our Cab/Merlot for up to 11 months in oak barrels, and bottle the final blend as young-drinking red wine. Even though its heritage lends to a full bottle aging potential, it is a wonderful wine while served young and pleases most red wine admirers.
