Description

VinoUS Media Review
Rated 93
A blend of 61% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc, 13% Syrah 5% Grenache and 5% Malbec, the 2022 Union is a complex, considerably structured wine that wears its plummy, spicy Merlot character on its sleeve. Cocoa-powder tannins and deep minerality convey a sense of gravitas, while inky, sappy fruit lingers long on the close. There's a surprising amount of power here.Drinking Window 2026-2032.
