Perfumed aromas of violets, dried lavender, blueberries, blackberries, asphalt, cocoa powder and walnut husk. It’s full-bodied with firm, creamy tannins. Polished, velvety and caressing with a plush core of dark fruit and spices and a subtle, smoky note. Try from 2023.
The 2019 Walla Walla Merlot is big, bold and juicy in the glass with elements of dusty leather, plum compote and spiced cherry jubilee. Full-bodied, the wine is firm with a delightful juicy core of dark red fruit that sways with cedar and cinnamon spice elements before showing firm tannins across the mid-palate. The Merlot ends with a long-lingering finish that will be sure to please lovers of generous Merlot. The wine spent 15 months in a mix of new and once filled French barrels and neutral botti. Just over 22,000 bottles produced.
