2017 Merlot

Peterson Family Vineyard | Calistoga

Intense aromas of ripe black fruits are complemented by very pretty floral notes. The rich mid-palate is a pleasant flood of texture and flavor with an explosive bright natural acidity. The tannin is quite soft and frames a subtle hint of espresso and toffee in the finish. This Merlot is very Cabernet-like with added fullness in the middle and beautiful balance.
