title: Autumn Hill 2009 Merlot-Petite Verdot (Monticello)
description: Aromas of blood, nori and worn leather compose the nose, with a touch of charred bread that adds a subtle bitterness. Light to medium bodied, the palate feels pliant at the start, but the acids spike and tower over the tannins as the wine spreads across the palate. A flavor of tart raspberry marks the finish.
