Midnight 2009 Mare Nectaris Reserve Red (Paso Robles)

Country: US / California
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
Winery: Midnight / Mare Nectaris Reserve

This Bordeaux-style blend of 25% Merlot, 25% Malbec, 25% Cabernet Franc, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Petit Verdot greets the nose with purple fruits, cigar box and menthol. The soft palate is saturated with blackberry pie and peppery spice, presented with nicely chalky tannins.
