Tight nose opens to feature hints of plum and other dark stone fruits. Upon the palate, this wine widens to include blackberry and raspberry tones, leading to a hint of anise on the finish. Slightly lighter body and delicate tannins follow a more Italian winemaking tradition and are indicative of the 2002 harvest. Enjoy with braised or grilled beef or lamb.

The 2004 Merlot features abundant black cherry and other dark stone fruits on the nose. The black cherry carries through the mid-palate leading to a soft and silky finish with undertones of cocoa. This is truly a graceful Merlot. The firm structure of the wine enables it to pair well with beef, as well as hearty pork, chicken and duck dishes.

Historically used as a blending grape, the Petit Verdot produces full-bodied wines with intense deep garnet color. One is greeted by the distinctive aromas of tobacco with a hint of plum. The tobacco carries through the mid-palate, enhanced by layers of raspberry and mellow pepper unfolding within the rich, supple texture. Don't let historical precedence of a bold blending wine. The elegance of the mid-palate leads you to hints of cherry and a gentle, pleasing tannic finish. Although it can be cellared for five to eight years, this wine is definitely drinkable now
