Description:	This California Bordeaux Blend/ Meritage has wonderful aroma, harmony and intensity. At first swirl, concentrated aromas of cherry-vanilla, rose petal and cassis are abundant. On the palate, juicy blackberry, red currant and black cherry notes are well balanced and rich without being overpowering. The wine has a long and supple finish that does not dry out the palate like many big red blends tend to do. This is a wine that should pair with robust dishes involving beef and game.
