2022 nth DEGREE Merlot – Club Exclusive

Tasting Notes
Generous flavors and aromas of ripe red cherry and plum form the foundation of the 2022 nth DEGREE Merlot. The vibrant fruit character is complimented by complex and rich oak layering highlighting flavors of cocoa and espresso bean. Inherent plump richness on the mid-pallet is supported by a careful measure of well-structured velvety tannin.
