Bright red berries, flowers, mint, spices and savory herbs jump from the glass in the 2011 Merlot. The aromas and flavors are bright, perfumed and beautifully nuanced in this vintage. Sweet floral notes reappear on the mid-weight finish. Ideally, the 2011 is best enjoyed over the next few years. The 2011 is 75% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot. 90 points
