Hall Merlot 2016

Displaying a deep garnet hue, this wine teems with pronounced aromas of raspberry, black cherry, and cocoa with hints of violet, black spice, and cola. The palate possesses a laser focus of black raspberry jam melded with rose petal and mocha. While the flavors are rich and persistent, this wine is in no way heavy or clumsy. It is well-defined and well-balanced straight through its eloquent finish.

This wine is layered, yet sleek. Its tightly-focused aromas and flavors of bright red and black fruit should pair it well with duck confit.
