Select lots of grapes are chosen from our vineyards in Sonoma County to create this beautifully-balanced and medium-bodied Merlot. This is a velvety wine with a complex nose of plum, chocolate spice, dark berries, coffee, caramel, and cedar. A fleshy mouthfeel is followed by flavors of bright, upfront, red fruit, a structured mid-palate, and a firm backbone of ripe tannins. This wine has impressive length and a lasting, elegant finish.

Food Pairings

The fruit forward, easy drinking qualities of our Merlot make it the perfect wine to pair with any red meat course, Italian entrees, and roasted or grilled fragrantly-spiced poultry dishes.
