2011 MERLOT
2011 MERLOT
Notes from the Winemaker
Deep, complex and jammy, our 2011 Merlot is a decadent expression of the classic varietal united with our terroir. Dried cranberry, prune and cherry candy waft off the nose complimenting this wine’s deep crimson color. Black plum and blackberry fruit mix with dark chocolate and a slightly earthy, leather backend. The delicate smoky finish flourishes the wine’s extremely well integrated tannins and residual acid, showing the wine’s continual aging prospects.
