Our Suscol Ranch vineyard is located in southeast Napa Valley. The south-facing vineyard provides even sun exposure for the ripening of the grapes. This easy-drinking Merlot has black fruit notes on the front of the palate and an undertone of vanilla on the finish.
Tasting Notes
The deep ruby color is followed by an equally beautiful bouquet of boysenberry, violets, pepper, and sap. Flavors of bramble, sweet, dried cherry, and sage are complemented by chewy tannins, lively acid, and a lingering finish. Drink now through 2028.
