The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, moderate
transparency. The nose reveals clean, elegant, intense and refined aromas

correspondent to the nose, very balanced, smooth and pleasing tannins.
Intense flavors and good body. The finish is persistent with pleasing and
clean flavors of black cherry, black currant and blueberry. A well made
wine. This Merlot Reserve is aged in barrique for 20 months and for 8
