Claar Cellars 2014 Merlot

Claar Cellars 2014 Merlot


This is a fruit forward, crowd pleasing Merlot with enough earth and spice to keep it interesting. On the nose, dark berry jam is upfront with notes of milk chocolate, sweet baking spices and a touch of Herbes de Provence. On the palate, flavors of spiced black plum compote are prominent, giving way to notes of earthy crushed violet, minerality reminiscent of clay pot and a stylish finish showing a dusting of cocoa powder. - Reviewed by Gary Hayes
