Description:
Fog Mountain Merlot is produced from carefully selected Merlot grapes grown throughout California, but predominantly from the North Coast. ... The 2015 growing season was one of the earliest harvests on record, featuring variability in crop size, with some grapes affected more than others.

Fog Mountain forms part of the Boisset Collection, and pays homage to the Californian mountain ranges and the cooling fog which envelopes them and has a huge influence on Californian viticulture. The mountains offer unique aspects and varied soils on which to plant vines, whilst the fog, with its cooling effect, creates the ideal microclimate, prolonging the growing season and allowing the grapes to ripen perfectly at an ideal pace.
