Winemaker Notes

When you combine a vintage of low yields and great concentration with a grape that loves to express itself on Rhinefarm, the result is a youthfully coy wine that is patiently waiting to give a full reveal. Tightly coiled aromas of darky berries, violets, cocoa, and anise yearn to greet the senses while the palate divulges a lusher, richer character than its medium body belies. Hinting at savory flavors of layered kirsch, berries, chocolate, and dried herbs, the 2015 Merlot will dazzle when it hits the spotlight, but appreciates a little more time or few hours decanting to get there.

Blend: 80% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Malbec
