Merlot

Merlot Wine Details
Price: $24.95 per bottle

Description: Dark ruby/garnet in color, the 2003 Merlot exhibits sweet vanilla, eucalyptus and bright red fruits aromatically with nuances of prune and fig. Additionally, its 21-month maturation in French oak has given it an almost mocha/roasted coffee bean element, which contributes to its complexity. Rich and velvety, these flavors come through and meld nicely on the palate, which lends to a clean and persistent finish. 450 cases produced. GOLD Medal – 2006 Tri Cities Wine Festival. Silver Medal – 2007 San Francisco Chronicle
