2023 AWARE

100% Merlot

Aromatic nuance of ripe plum, fig preserves, star anise and coffee bean leap from the glass. Cherry cola, balsamic glaze and vanilla bean melt into velvet tannin and juicy acidity. The finish integrates a smattering of fresh potting soil and dried oregano with fruity sweetness reminiscent of peanut butter and jelly on toasted brioche.
