Description

Red plum, currants, and cedar aromas with a touch of earthy goodness. This wine is medium to full-bodied and impeccably balanced with a firm texture and a long, savory finish. Pour a few glasses alongside slow grilled BBQ beef ribs or wild mushroom risotto.

The grapes are harvested from vineyards southeast of Ukiah in Mendocino, California. Fermented in stainless steel, the finished wine is then put in a blend of new and used oak for six months prior to bottling.

For some, Merlot has become the black sheep of the wine world prompting connoisseurs everywhere to turn up their nose at its mere mention. Those times have come and gone, however, and much of the sub-par Merlot that prompted its decline has been banished from the vineyard. What’s left is the good stuff, and this wine is a great example.
