Bookwalter Merlot / Cabernet Sauvignon “Conflict”

Bookwalter Merlot / Cabernet Sauvignon “Conflict”

This is a revelation. The complex and site-specific aromas suggest wild herb, lavender, lemon verbena and black olive. The tannins are supple and ripe, with no green edge at all. The fruit combines mineral-soaked black cherry, sweet raspberry compote, and deep cassis. A marvelous wine, dense, detailed and seductive.
