Grapes: 60% Merlot, 18% Cab Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Petit Verdot
Alcohol Content: 13.5% Vol
From the compelling herbal aroma to the generously textured fruit, this melds the best elements of the merlot (60 percent of this blend) with cabernets sauvignon and franc and a small addition of petit verdot (4 percent). It's a dark and savory as a digestif of herbal bitters, balanced by dark fruit that lasts with freshness. Decant it for venison or other robust game.
