The 2015 Paloma Merlot fills the glass with a dense, ruby colored offering that offers up notes of ripe red plums, currants, blackberries and a hint of menthol. In the mouth, this is a sumptuous effort, with a dense, even chewy mouthfeel that presents wave after wave of ripe fruit, and the omnipresent mocha, chocolate notes so consistent with Paloma's mountain fruit. The finish is simply sublime. Drinking beautifully upon release, this 2015 Merlot possesses the structure and backbone to offer years of continued, evolving enjoyment.

"Fills the glass with enticing scents of ripe plum, ground cocoa, herbs and notes of white pepper. In the mouth, the wine shares delights of dark berries, evolving to rich cherry liqueur. The experience completes with a beautiful long finish. Enjoyed near term, or cellared, this estate Cabernet will provide years of enjoyment. While ideally complementing rich meats such as duck or lamb, enjoy it on it's own or in your favourite comfortable place with a touch of dark chocolate." - T&C
