2019 Merlot Moon Mountain District

Power, depth and structure are the hallmarks of mountain-grown wines. As the vines labor for footing in the rocky volcanic soil, the berries they produce are intensely concentrated. Grown at 1,800 feet elevation, our mountain Merlot bears every characteristic of its hillside origins – bold, rich fruit and a decadent flavor profile that is fully illuminated within a framework of fine-grained tannins. The unique geography of Sonoma’s Moon Mountain District is naturally suited to creating wines of both intensity and elegance, and in this vintage conditions were optimal for this block selection of Merlot to become explosive.
