About This Wine

Pull

Merlot

Merlot is often considered to be a perfect natural partner for blends featuring Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, or Syrah, but when given the chance to stand on its own, Merlot truly shines. Hailing from Paso Robles, an idyllic growing region for big red wines thanks to warm sunny days, afternoon breezes, and cool nights that justify opening all the windows in the house, this wine showcases that Merlot can be a beautiful stand-alone varietal. It is full-bodied and complex with decadent flavors and spices. Versatile enough to sip now stash in the cellar for a few years, pair with grilled, roasted, or stewed meats or a bold cheese plate.

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.

Tasting Notes

  • A figure representing the Black Cherry tasting note. Black Cherry
  • A figure representing the Black Pepper tasting note. Black Pepper

This is a complex and full-bodied yet approachable wine with soft tannins and a long-lasting savory profile. Decadent flavors from sweet black cherries and dark plum marry with chocolate notes and spices like black pepper and bay leaf. Pair with dishes that are equally bold yet approachable - anything off the grill or a savory cheese plate.
