Description

Our 2022 Napa Valley Merlot is selected om our estates in St. Helena and Yountville. The grapes are night picked, destemmed and cold soaked to extract color and aromas. The wine opens with expressive aromas of hibiscus tea, cranberry, cherry, red currant, cedar, plum skin, brown butter, and whole cardamom. It is so and buttery with a lush entry. Notes of vanilla, baked red fruit, cocao nibs, and red currant lead to a medium long finish with cherry and spicy oak.

Aged 15 months in French oak barrels.
