2021 Kenefick Ranch Merlot
The 2021 Merlot shows a very complex yet intricate aromatic profile of dried raspberry intertwining with plum notes and floral perfumes. Subtle pie crust toast notes underly the fruit.
The palate is just rich enough with structure, creme brulee notes and dark berry preserve to provide an excellent middle and finish on every sip.
