Cuvée du Ruisseau – 2019; Calais Winery; Hye, Texas

Sometimes small things deliver exceptional palate pleasers. This 187ml version of the famous Calais Merlot is a testament to that.  Harvested from Newsom Vineyards of the Texas High Plains AVA, its rich and smooth texture is something to truly be noteworthy. Initial notes of blueberry come out on that first pour accompanied by some cherries. Sip and swirl and you might pick up on a hint of tobacco and maybe even some spice. That nice lingering finish is definitely something to remember this one for.  Lots of abundance of flavors to enjoy in this little guy. Santé!
