WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
A true expression of Alexander Valley Merlot. Bright vibrant and purple color. This wine opens with vibrant aromas of red currant, raspberry, black plum, and baking spices, accented by notes of rhubarb crumble, cardamom, and milk chocolate. The palate is silky and refined, with fine-grained tannins carrying layers of plum, cherry, and cocoa powder. A bright, elegant finish highlights the wine’s balance and graceful structure. Drink through 2035.
TASTING NOTES:
A supple, layered wine, showing gorgeous fruit, good balance and freshness. It bursts with flavors of red and black cherries, blueberries, cinnamon and cocoa, backed by light to medium tannins. Drink now.
