The Fat Man

This wine has one of the most humorous tales. Stacked high in the cellar in its neutral oak barrels nearly reaching its end at the hand of an obese invader. Four months into the aging process, a drunken neighbor broke into the wine cellar to undoubtedly swipe more drink. He stumbled into the base of the wine racks causing one of the Merlot barrels to break loose from its bracing and fall upon him. Surprisingly, the fat man was not hurt and neither was the wine. His girth cushioned the fall of the 550 pound barrel and miraculously caused the barrel to only bruise his back and roll to the ground. Due to the laughter gained from this occasion no charges were pressed and the wine was in fact named after The Fat Man.

Chocolates & Raspberries on the palate. This Merlot is smooth and full bodied. It is not heavily acidic, but washes down with an astoundingly relaxing finish.

Pairs with rich chocolate desserts, strawberries, red meats, cheeses, and pastas.
