Our Merlot fruit comes from two blocks atop a knoll in the famed Hyde Vineyard, where harvests typically yield less than two tons per acre. It’s a youthful wine that’s invitingly approachable, while still offering the richness and decadence we love.
OUR TASTING NOTES
The 2013 Merlot has aromas of plum and dark cherries with an uplifting hint of warm spices. On the palate, the wine has a defined presence of natural acidity with sweet subtle tannins that gives structure to an enticing milk chocolate finish.
