Wine to Try: CMS Red by Hedges

CMS Red by Hedges

2007

Cabernet Sauvignon – Merlot – Syrah

Columbia Valley – American Viticultural Area

42% Cabernet Sauvignon

51% Merlot

7% Syrah

Dark purple in color with a nose of black cherry, cassis, with hints of tar, tobacco, and sweet vanilla toast.  Black cherry and blackberry fruit continue on the palate with dried herbs and licorice.  A nicely balanced wine with enough acidity and tannins to make this a more serious longer lived wine that pairs nicely with a wide array of foods.
