2017 Merlot Reserve

Our 2017 Merlot Reserve is rich and complex, bursting with ample fruit flavors. Aromas of chocolate-covered raspberries, pomegranate, spice, and tobacco dance along the rim with a swirl. The balanced earthy notes are complemented by silky smooth integrated tannins, creating a well-rounded, long, and viscous finish on the palate. Perfect for savoring every sip.

Production Notes

2017 is a splendid vintage, giving us vibrant wines that continue to please wine lovers. This wine endured long cold fermentations to help retain the fruit flavors and aged in the barrel for 36 months.
