Tarara 2010 Winemaker’s Select Bin #9 Merlot-Cabernet Sauvignon (Virginia)

Country: US / Winemaker’s Select Bin #9
Variety: Merlot-Cabernet Sauvignon Virginia
Winery: Tarara / Virginia

Aromas of cassis, dried flower and dill are accented by notes of turmeric and desiccated black fruit. Medium to full bodied, this blend of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon is juicy and supple, with some chalky tannins that add tension. Red fruit and espresso notes creep onto the midpalate, lending extra nuance.
