Presumably Merlot based as it is stated to be "Right Bank" in style, this a classic early Napa style of wine,. plenty of juiciness and structure without lots of oak or high alcohol. Plum, cherry, and clove abound in this artfully constructed bottling. Pair with roast chicken thighs and potatoes, or veal stew.
