Description
Rick Moshin planted and began farming this one-acre lot of Merlot in 1999 - selecting a premium Bordeaux clone (190) to cultivate. This vineyard continues to produce beautiful and bountiful fruit. This year we’ve added 2 % Cabernet Sauvignon to enhance this wonderful Bordeaux varietal. A cool vintage, this Merlot shows all the classic Bordeaux characteristics expected. Grassy and herbal aromas, black olive tapenade and sappy plum, cherry pit and fennel. Faint hints of rosemary, wood and tamarind. Big, round, filling mouthfeel- while still balanced with fine tannin and rich finish. Drink now t
