The Cabernet provides the sturdy frame and virility while the Merlot provides the softness to tame and round out the Cabernet. Warm, summer berry and a hint of cedar leads this wine out of the glass while a slight whisper of spice remains. On the plate, the blend delivers a pleasant roundness and a bright acidity that makes it perfect to entice a food partner. Happy together, they should make you happy with every sip.
