Cabernet Sauvignon
Mercer Estates Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Columbia Valley | Release Date: 3/01/11
Suggested National Retail Price: $23.99
Cassis and toasted oak mingle with ripe cherry and cocoa in the nose and continue on the palate with additional complexities of forest floor, sweet earth and spice revealed with air. Textured, full-bodied and long; supple tannins support the fruit which is framed by fresh acidity. Approachable and elegant upon release, this wine will age nicely and increasingly show its depth and additional complexities over time.
