Product Description:

"The Broadside Merlot follows in the same stylistic and winemaking direction as our Cabernet Sauvignon. We pick early to pre - serve freshness and acidity, while our focused viticulture ensures consistent, mature ripeness. This unique site is well-suited for the Bordeaux varieties with well-drained soils and coastal climate influence producing wines of excep - tional intensity, structure, and longevity. Merlot ripened beautifully in 2012 providing high-toned aromas of red currant, cedar, and cherrywood smoke. Dry, with refreshing acid - ity and fine tannins, it’s versatile at the table now and will reward those with patience and a cellar for years to come." -Winery
