Bonterra Merlot

The Bonterra Merlot is a sumptuous expression of the Merlot varietal with its origins in California. The wine boasts silken layers of multi-dimensional delight. It starts with an aromatic profile of red cherries, lush raspberries, followed by toasty oak. The flavor gives way to deeper spice notes of cinnamon, clove, and cocoa, mingling with a hint of earthiness. The organic viticulture practices employed in producing this wine lends to its natural balance and expressive flavor.

Given its flavor profile, the Bonterra Merlot superbly complements a range of dishes. For food pairings, consider dishes that match its rich, earthy character. It pairs well with roast duck, grilled red meat, mushroom-based dishes, and mature cheeses. Alternatively, this Merlot makes for a great stand-alone glass, to be enjoyed on a comfortable evening alone or amongst friends.
