winemaker's notes:

The estate vineyard Merlot includes a splash of Cabernet and Petit Verdot; it's beefed up considerably from the regular Columbia Valley Merlot.  More muscle and weight translates more to a stylistic choice than a better wine; both Merlots are substantial and satisfying, with much more flesh to the red fruit flavors, and the tannic backbone to carry the wine through a smooth finish.

critical acclaim:

"The dark ruby-colored 2006 Merlot Columbia Valley offers up aromas of spice box, black cherry, and cassis. Elegant on the palate, it has plenty of spicy fruit, savory flavors, and good length. This tasty effort will drink well through 2016."

The Wine Advocate

"Rich and ripe, with a tarry edge to the dried cherry and dark plum flavors, finishing with spice and pepper. Drink now through 2013. 2,980 cases made. "
