Product Description:

Wine:
"Produced from family-owned and family-farmed vineyards in the Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys, our 2012 Merlot is crafted in the style of “Right Bank” Bordeaux. The vineyards are all sustainably farmed and were fermented separately prior to master blending selected barrels into the finished wine. The depth and balance of this 2012 Merlot allowed us to bottle the wine without blending other Bordeaux varietals, as is our custom.

Our 2012 Merlot is a classicly rich, ripe and structured Sonoma County Merlot with a nod towards “Right Bank” Bordeaux.

Aromas of blackberry, ripe plum, vanilla, cedar and cigar box tease the nose. The palate follows with mouth filling blackberry and plum flavors, and hints of vanilla and oak spice. Soft, smooth tannins integrate with the extended structure to make this a balanced, elegant Merlot from attack through to the lingering finish." - Winery
