Description
Mendocino County is our darling when it comes to sourcing Merlot. With its warm afternoons, rich varied soils, elevations, ocean breezes, and the reliable morning fog pattern, the region provides an excellent climate for maturing the blue and red flavours that we prize in Merlot. Plum, blackberry and hibiscus fruit on the palate with soft notes of baking spices. Berry-driven and savoury, the mi-palate is juicy and generous, and round with soft, supple tannins on the entry that become firmer and more refined on the finish.
