2018 Merlot · 미국

The Oak Knoll district, located in the southern end of Napa Valley, experiences a longer growing season due to the cooling effect of the San Pablo Bay. These cool nights and slow warming days help create the perfect environment for growing Merlot, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and create complex, well-balanced wines. Our 2018 Merlot is bright with notes of plum, cherry, and baking spices with balanced tannins. Pair this wine with triple cream brie, grilled portabella mushrooms, or Ragù alla Bolognese. For a fruit-forward wine with bright acidity, enjoy now, or age up to 10 years for a softer, earthier wine.
