2021 Estate Merlot
Tasting notes
Medium Ruby in color, you will find mountain strawberry, Chelan Cherry, fresh vanilla cake and subtle hints of alder smoke on the nose. The palate is greeted with smooth integrated tannins, ample notes of raspberry puree, pomegranate and holiday cranberry sauce. Subtle notes of oak spice, mouthwatering acidity and a long finish make this 100% Merlot something special.
Barrel Regimen: Aged for 18 months in 73% New Oak (60% New French, 13% New American)
