Intense red color with light garnet hues. Fresh and fruity aroma with notes of wild berry jam and cherries preserved in alcohol. Pleasant and balanced flavor that reflects the aromas perceived on the nose.

Chocolate, bark and floral aromas follow through to a medium body with fine tannins and a juicy finish. Nice acidity. Drink now.

The 2018 Merlot Varneri boasts a sweetly scented mix of medicinal cherries with autumnal spices and hints of pipe tobacco. It’s soft with a more savory mix of tart red fruits and inner herbal tones on the palate. This leaves the cheeks puckered while tapering off with nuances of sour citrus and chewy tannins. The 2018 Varneri falls into a strange place between easy drinking and youthfully tense, but I don’t sense enough power within to promote aging.
