Hunt & Harvest Merlot 2015

In the glass, the wine is vibrant garnet red in color and has lifted aromatics of red plum, dark cherry and dusty milk chocolate. The fruit on the palate is bright with satsuma plum and red berries. The prominent acid line throughout the palate fits neatly with the mid-weight tannin profile and leads to a finish that has touches of bitter dark chocolate.
