Product Code: TREF2003003548
Price: Check Latest
Because Merlot flourishes in relatively cool growing regions with moist soils, it’s extremely well-suited to the ancient alluvial loams, temperate climate, and long growing season of our estate vineyard in the Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley, a sweet climate zone between Napa’s warmer up-valley regions and its cool southern tip.
The 2003 Merlot boasts robust berry and black cherry fruit aromas accented by a hint of toasty vanilla. On the palate, the wine’s opulent texture frames rich, deep, plummy flavors that culminate in a long, lush finish with round, savory tannins. The ultimate food wine, Merlot complements everything from tomato-based pastas to pork and grilled steaks.
