| Description |
| The aroma of dark cherries and wild berries mix with the scent of meadow flowers. On the palate, a cherry and chocolate sweetness is balanced by the firm tannin finish. Cellar through 2014 |

| 2007 Merlot Terroir |
| submitted by: David Lawrason |
This a compact, well balanced, firm merlot with a restrained but complex nose of currant-raspberry fruit, tobacco, lead pencil and earth. Quite Bordeaux-like. It’s mid-weight, warm and well extracted with a warm, dry quite tannic finish. Very good to excellent length. Needs ageing about three years.
