Our 2008 Mirifice is a blend of 75% estate grown high end Merlot, 20% Napa Valley hillside Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Calistoga Napa Valley Petite Verdot.
Nose - Expansive aromas of red plum, red cherry, cinnamon, dark chocolate and espresso.
Taste - Fruit is bright and pretty on the palate, with sweet plum, berry and some cherry married nicely with chocolate, toast and baking spice flavors. The finish is long, supple and racy but best with lots of aeration to fully bring the flavors out. The tannins are soft as silk.
Enjoy now through the next 10 to 15 years.
Pairing suggestions - Game such as quail, pheasant or meats such as lamb, veal, prime rib.
