Taltarni Three Monks Cabernet Merlot 2006

Grapes for the Taltarni Three Monks Cabernet Merlot 2006 were sourced entirely from Taltarni's Pyrenees vineyard. 2006 was a dry, warm vintage with lower yields producing ripe, concentrated fruit that was harvested two weeks earlier than expected. Cabernet and Merlot are classic blending partners with the Cabernet providing length and structure and the Merlot adding softness and midpalate weight. A small amount of Petit Verdot has been included for added richness and texture.
