Boxwood Estate Boxwood Trellis 2016

Boxwood Estate Trellis is made from 73% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.

The  Trellis has a bright cherry color. The nose is expressive with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, tobacco, and dried herbs. The pallet is balanced with medium acidity and a medium body. There is prominent raspberry and pomegranate on the pallet. Light dusty tannins fill out the finish of the wine.

Intense aromas of earth and red cherries give way to a more fruit-forward palate, sharpened by the nuance of minerality and crushed gravel. With a medium long finish and successful integration of red fruits and earthy tones, it is a wine that encapsulates the traditional Bordeaux flavors.
