Variety: Merlot
Winery: Comtesse Thérèse / Château Reserve
Layers of char, black pepper and briar patch help to build complexity in this dense, concentrated black plum Merlot. There’s a touch of green leaf and tomato throughout, but overall, it’s a fruit-driven, luscious wine accented with spice and smooth, supple tannins. Aged 24 months in new French oak.
