“Lots of fresh cherries, spiced red plums, strawberries and currants jump out from the glass. This juicy, medium-bodied red has a lot to offer in terms of fruit. The tannins are firm and ripe with enough crunchiness and fruit-length to keep it interesting and well-drinkable.\u00a0“<\/em> – James Suckling, 91 Points<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n Grape: <\/strong>60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Syrah, 5% Petit Verdot<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17703,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\n
