ABOUT THIS WINE:

New Kent Winery

Merlot

The New Kent Winery Merlot from the 2013 vintage is a delightful red that showcases the unique terroir of Virginia. This wine presents a medium body with a pleasing acidity that balances beautifully with its fruit intensity, which is prominent yet not overwhelming. The tannins are soft and approachable, making this Merlot an excellent choice for both seasoned wine enthusiasts and those new to reds. As it glides across the palate, flavors of ripe plum and dark cherry emerge, complemented by subtle notes of oak and spice. This wine is dry, making it particularly food-friendly, and it pairs wonderfully with a range of dishes, from roasted meats to hearty pastas. Enjoy this captivating Merlot that truly embodies the charm of Virginia winemaking.
