Description
|
Selected grapes grown in the Applegate Valley and Columbia Valley produced this high quality Merlot.
Rich, smoky plum characteristics on the nose yield to cherry, cassis and barrel elements on the palate. A mouth filling wine well suited for tossed green salad with Blue Chevre (goat) cheese and cherry tomatoes.

Food Pairing
|
Merlot can match a large variety of foods including meat and game dishes, particularly those with sauce. Pastas and pâtés blend well with the soft fruitiness of Merlot and, after dinner, a ripe creamy cheese such as Pont l'Eveque is sensational.
