The 2014 Merlot begins to slowly reveal dark fruit aromas with milk chocolate shavings and sage accents. The palate is plush and coats the mid-palate. Lightly tannic, this yields dark cherries, boysenberry cordial and milk chocolate flavors that sit alongside nice tension. This is an outstanding effort by winemaker Billo Naravane.
