Winery Notes:

Perfectly ripe blackberry and black plum are layered with chocolate, Five Spice, cardamon, black licorice, black loamy earth, and wet pipe tobacco. The luxurious black fruit is carried through on the palate alongside cocoa nibs, bay, and baking spices. The flavors envelop your whole mouth, driven by the fresh fruit of youthfulness and distinctively firm tannins of the 2021 vintage. Bright acidity brings balance to the chewy tannins and drives the minutes long finish. This is classic Pride Merlot, exemplifying the power, density, and elegance of mountaintop viticulture
