On the nose, this Merlot is serene and delicate with notes of cocoa dust, mushroom, and grape leaves. With a light to medium body and an undercurrent of cassis, this wine has cheery aromas of black raspberry, mixed dark fruits, and mint. With roasted beet salad, twice-baked potatoes, and garlic rosemary pork, you would enjoy a generously poured glass of this wine, which exhibits structured tannins and a long, velvety finish of rosemary and black licorice.
