Santa Cruz Mountains Merlot

Santa Cruz Mountains Merlot Wine Details
Price: $32.00 per bottle

Description: The Merlot opens with soaring aromatics of mocha and cherries and follows with hints of toast and fresh mint. The wine is finely structured with well integrated tannins, balanced by bright acidity and a lush mouth feel. We are extremely pleased with this effort as it is truly representative of the 2001 vintage. Lush and powerful fruit, firml structure with bright acidity, is something we strive for in every wine we produce from the Santa Cruz Mountains. This Merlot drinks brilliantly now but possesses the backbone and stuffing for further development.
