Bright ruby with violet undertones, this youthful Merlot bursts with high-toned aromas of wild raspberry, red cherry, and pomegranate, accented by rose petal, baking spice, and a hint of crushed limestone. Lively and energetic on the palate, it delivers vibrant notes of cranberry, plum, and red cherry, with polished tannins and mid-palate complexity from white pepper and blueberry. The finish is sleek and mineral-driven, with lingering black cherry and spice. More agile and lifted than its Dry Creek counterpart, it reflects Alexander Valley’s warm days and cool nights with clarity and verve. Drink through 2035.
This is a deep and pretty intense take on Merlot, with aromas of black plum, cassis, cinnamon, and coffee dominating the nose. The palate is rich and weighty, with rich tannin balanced by vibrant acidity and flavors of roasted cherries, spiced plum compote, licorice, and mint echoing through the finish. —T.R.C.
