Tortoise Creek Merlot 2006

The grapes are grown and sourced from five single vineyard sites from the Languedoc region in the south of France along the Mediterranean coast. No oak was used and the wine was bottled without filtration. The Merlot is firm in the mouth with dark cherry, plum and spice notes. It has a lasting finish with hints of dried blackberries. Enjoy it with red-sauced pasta dishes, beef stew or a glazed honey ham.
