100% Merlot from the Ciel du Cheval Vineyard of Red Mountain, this wine is aged in 63% new French oak for 22 months and presents deep purple in the glass. Attractive Christmas-spiced red plums, black cherry, dried mint and red peppercorn aromatics lift a red-fruit dominated palate with secondary characteristics of gingerbread spice and iron ore. Medium acidity and medium-low tannins are present on the finish.
