Oso Libre 2010 Querida Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Querida
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot California

Chalky earth, black pepper and clove comprise the nose on this wine, which gets a boost from 10% Merlot. The flavors are spicy and complex, with cedar, tea and a tiny bit of varietally distinct green pepper.
