Markham Merlot

With a bit of coaxing, this youthful Merlot will reveal cassis, vanilla and red cherry jam over abundant spicy notes of cinnamon, anise and smoky BBQ. This vintage has power to relax and show its milk chocolate side if you're willing to wait. 

Merlot is a perfect match for beef and other medium-heavy dishes. It pairs wonderfully with rich, red pasta sauces, pork, turkey, beef, veal, pheasant, and garden salads. Merlot is also an excellent compliment to chocolate.
