Aromas suggest autumn leaves, berries, leather, pipe smoke and plum. Dry with grippy tannins and good cedary/leathery fruit tones. Well-textured wine with soft, plush tannins. Definitely a wine that will sing with food. Try this sturdy, well-made Merlot-Cab with grilled lamb chops, ratatouille or beef stroganoff. (VINTAGES panel, Feb. 2012)
