The 2019 Red Blend Mernet Reserve is another superb wine from Keenan. This Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon blend is bold, deep and full of character. It captures all the nuance Keenan fans expect, amplified by an extra kick of richness in the fruit. Inky red fruit, blood orange, mint, cinnamon, mocha and dried flowers lend notable complexity.

A strong effort, the 2019 Mernet Reserve- a 50-50 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, aged in one-third new oak, delivers plenty of almost grapey fruit, cassis and black cherries, underscored by hints of vanilla and cedar. It's medium to full-bodied, richly tannic and velvety, with a long, mouthwatering finish.
