"With gorgeous red-velvet and crimson hues, this Merlot has hints of wild berries and black pepper. On the palate, its smooth but complex body brings forth flavors of plum and black cherry, followed by a soft, satisfying finish. This Merlot pairs wonderfully with rich, red pasta sauces, turkey, beef, pork roast and tenderloin, and salads such as Roquefort & pear and Asian chicken. It is also a superb complement to chocolate."-Winemaker
