Merlot from Napa Valley, California

Winemaker Notes

Medium-ruby color. On the nose, deep, dark berries, toasted bread, evergreen, spice. On the palate, light-to medium body, moderate tannins, and pleasant, dark berry and cherry fruit flavors, finishing with mouthwatering acidity. Balanced, flavorful, complex enough to return to in the glass for reexamining.

Food Pairing

Pairs well with pot roast, burgers, meatloaf, warm-spiced shawarma, meaty Bolognese, or polenta with fontina and braised short ribs.
