Beautiful richness and intensity make for a very welcoming bouquet. This 50-50 Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot blend lasts long on the palate, and boasts luscious aromas of blackberry, Maraschino cherry, tobacco and lightly toasted hazelnut. Extrasoft, velvety tannins characterize the finish.

Here’s an elegant and rich 50-50 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from a boutique Bolgheri producer (with a small case production) that delivers mature fruit, spice, hazelnut and chocolate. It shows sun-ripened aromas that would pair well with grilled lamb chops.
