2010 Merlot
NY – Ackerly Pond
Size: 750ml - Bottle
Blackberry and cherry aromas work alongside the rich escapes of toasted oak for a strong, yet mellow finish in this full-bodied red. Its complexity takes hold of your taste buds and gently hangs on, making it a great match for savory, roasted-style dishes and stews. Enjoy with some dark chocolate morsels for a delightfully decadent experience.
