What a delicious and lovely nose this wine head. Silky smooth Merlot all of the way. Decanted and left it open for about 30 minutes and I’m not even sure it needed that. Firm with delicate flavors and just enough tannins for structure. Red and blue fruits with lavender and Rosemary notes. Drank this with short ribs that had been cooked sous vide for 24 hours with a red wine, hatch chili powder, salt, pepper, and onion marinade. Included with cream and garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. Lovely lovely wine.
