NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Sloan Asterisk is an inviting and complex blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.Aromas of ripe red and black fruit, baking spices, and subtle earthy notes lead to a full-bodied palate of juicy dark fruits and subtle tannins. The finish is long and smooth, with a touch of sweet spice and a hint of oak. Enjoy this wine with grilled steak, roasted vegetables, or a rich dark chocolate dessert.
