Description:
Since producing our first vintage of Merlot in 1983, we’ve been committed to making the best possible expression of the variety. Understanding that site selection and farming are key to exceptional Merlot, in 2014 we shifted our focus for sourcing to the Napa side of Carneros, which we believe produces consistently high-quality wines from this noble grape.
Ripe black plum, black tea and mint aromas mingle in the glass with subtle scents of spice, freshly baked pie crust, and vanilla. This wine’s lively palate jumps with cherry and plum flavors with a touch of mint and hint of spice, all giving way to notes of dark chocolate and vanilla. Its signature palate is framed by very fine, yet soft tannins and a refreshing length, enhanced by its acidity.
