2016 MERLOT

RUTHERFORD ESTATE

“Deep red and juicy delicious, this wine has a balanced mouthfeel and silky tannins that make it neither light nor heavy. Aromas of black cherry, fresh plum, red currant, and hazelnut drift from the nose through the palate. Interlaced with the softest touch of French oak and a naturally balanced acidity, this fresh and inviting wine pairs perfectly with good food and better friends.” – Justin Carr

 
93 Points, Wine Enthusiast

Given 80 months in French oak and made from organically grown grapes, this red impresses in its grasp of a leathery texture and rounded tannins. Pipe tobacco, currant and dark-plum flavors accent a well-integrated and balanced core of subtle power and elegance. — Virginie Boone

GROWING SEASON

An early bud break, wet spring soils, and a long growing season produced a vintage with excellent quality. A wet spring started fast and rapid growth was met with average summer temperatures, which slowed development and reduced yields. The result was a moderate crop of well-concentrated fruit that ripened fully and slowly before an early harvest.
