About This Wine

Broken Earth Winery

Estate Merlot

This estate-grown Merlot from Paso Robles produces an intensity of flavor that is quite unusual for California. Nevertheless, this is a gorgeous representation of a limited release item. Aged in French and American oak for 20 months, this wine has distinctive firm and grippy tannins that are complemented by dark fruit flavors and beautiful floral notes. As it is sipped, this wine retains its elegant structure but offers a multi-layered and complex palate, making it a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. Enjoy with a range of dark meat dishes. Vintages may vary.

Wine Region

Paso Robles

California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.
