Winemaker Notes
"This is our serious yet approachable Merlot. The wine shows complex
aromas of black cherries, red licorice and a touch of cedar. The voluminous
yet racy midpalate emphasizes sweet fruit, with a lingering cherry finish.
It has the typical full structure of a Washington state Merlot but in a
softer package for versatility and friendliness. Try with pasta marinara
or beef kabobs - truly versatile!"
- Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker
