Natalie's Score: 92/100

Lavish notes of black raspberry, strawberry and cranberry on the nose, with a spicy, smoky cigar box suffusion on the finish. This full-bodied wine is silky and beautifully layered. It is a blend of Merlot, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Merlot Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: pork tenderloin, tacos, grilled salmon, veal stuffed with sausage, beet salad, rustic bread.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
