Description
Dark ruby, the 2017 Merlot Bosché expresses rich Bing cherry aroma which is typical of the Bosché vineyard. The bouquet has nuances of blueberry, milk chocolate, chocolate truffle, baking spices and vanilla. Balancing the abundance of fruit depth, the oak spice is very well integrated, not dominant but provides a substantial backbone to the complexity of the wine. The flavor is big, voluptuous, soft and velvety, with rich, great depth of black cherry fruit. The tannins are well integrated providing a very long fruitful finish.
