Tasting notes on the wine: 

This is a delightful departure from the traditional Bordeaux, offering a rich medley of berry and cherry notes, medium-plus tannins, and excellent structure, sure to surprise and delight both merlot and Bordeaux aficionados at your holiday table. Its velvety texture and notes of ripe red fruit harmonize beautifully with the traditional turkey, cranberry sauce, and savory stuffing.
