Winemaker Notes
This Merlot captures the essence of Mendocino wines; strong, vibrant and packed with scents and flavors reminiscent of the ripest black cherries. French oak induces hints of spice and bold, supple tannins offer strength and concentration throughout the wine.

Wine Enthusiast
Concentrated and complex, this is a layered and packed wine. Dark chocolate, black cherry and pomegranate flavors are animated by a lively current of fine tannins, fresh acidity and full body. It includes 24% Cabernet Sauvignon. Delicious now, but will improve through at least 2018.
