2008 Stillwater Creek ​Merlot

Aromas of cinnamon, Mom's candied sweet potatoes, red scented marker from Kindergarten, Flintstone vitamins and chili powder make this wine a personal trip down memory lane that quickly turns into a dinner date with Joan Holloway from Mad Men. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, robust, spicy, firm and meaty with a long finish of cinnamon and chocolate. Fire up the grill, this beauty deserves a fancy steak dinner.
