Lithos Merlot,2021, California

Smooth, approachable, and richly layered with classic California character. Aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, and baking spice rise from the glass, complemented by hints of
cocoa and soft oak. The palate is round and velvety, offering flavors of red and dark berries with a touch of vanilla and mocha. Gentle texture and balanced acidity lead to a soft, lingering finish.

Pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, grilled pork, or hearty pasta dishes. Also a great match for mushroom risotto or mild cheeses.
