Our 2016 Merlot was aged an additional 12 months in select, new French oak barrels to create this beautiful Reserve Merlot packed with mature aromas of dried cherry and violet. The 30 months of total aging developed an exquisite mouthfeel with notes of tobacco and pencil shaving. Its complex finish lingers to create the best accompaniment to a homemade pot-roast and creamy mushroom dishes.
