ABOUT THIS WINE:
Fifth Note Cellars
Merlot Cabernet Franc Cabernet Sauvignon
Aged in French oak for 18 months, this wine is an elegant blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, two classic Bordeaux varietals. Full-bodied and featuring notes of dark fruit, herbs, and baking spices, it will drink wonderfully now but also would age beautifully for the next 3-5 years. Judges love it too! It has taken home a Silver medal from the 2020 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition and at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge.

WINE REGION:
California
California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

Tastes of dark fruits like blackberry and black plum married with floral notes of violet and savory hints of herbs and warm baking spices makes this wine wonderful for all palates and preferences.
