Grgich Hills grows their Merlot in both the cooler American Canyon and Carneros vineyards, as well as in their warmer Yountville vineyard. They blend these vineyards to create a balanced, complex wine that combines the richness and depth from the warmer climates and perfume and bright fruitiness from the cooler climates. Committed to natural winegrowing and sustainability, they farm our five estate vineyards without artificial fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides, and they are certified organic.
This exquisite Merlot opens with aromas of floral rose hip, tangy blood orange and rhubarb with a hint of blackberry, red pepper, and bay leaf. On the palate, a lovely soft entry with plenty of juicy, ripe red fruit is supported by complex, savory undertones. The balanced acid structure and young chalky tannins bring a pleasant freshness, leading to a focused, balanced finish.
