Region: California (Guenoc Valley - on the edge of Napa)

Grape: 100% Merlot

Taste: A beauty for the price! Medium ruby with black raspberry and hints of cherry and white pepper on the nose. The tannins are well-integrated. Some fig and vanilla on the palate with a lingering finish with some chocolate notes.

Pairings: A versatile wine at home with a burger or a steak.
