Region:Valle Central
A double check in chess is a bold move - pressure from two angles, impossible to ignore. Just like its namesake, Double Check Merlot makes a striking impression: a nose of ripe cherry, plum and dark chocolate, followed by a rich palate of juicy fruit and warming spice. It captures your attention from the very first sip, with a smooth and lingering finish. A strategic indulgence you'll want to revisit time and again.
