I actually visited this vineyard two months ago and had a private tasting with the owner Denis Zeni. I'm not a big merlot fan but like this one so much I bought a few cases. It's full bodied with hits of black cherries, strawberry and tons of red fruit. In my opinion this wine is not one dimensional like most merlots. Albeit this winery is known for its Cabernet Franc which I love.
