Merry Edwards Pinots offer the promise of deep, succulent fruit and this one doesn’t disappoint. Medium to deep ruby color leads to lovely aromatics of floral, blueberry and spice. The flavors are richly textured with traces of mocha, dark fruits and anise. It has firm tannins, good length and finishes with 13.9% alcohol.
