Wine
This blend (2002) of Merlot (65%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (35%) produces a fine and elegant Wine full of charm. The nose is dominated by red fruit aromas and accented with notes of vanilla. The taste is very complex, melting with silky tannins. It will happily accompany meat as well as grilled fish
