"Washington State is an incredibly unique and wonderful growing region in the US. It is considered to be a cool-climate region thanks to the influence of the nearby Pacific Ocean and the vast Mountain ranges that surround the Pacific North West, but there are many vineyard sites in the region that are actually warmer. This type of shift in temperature is ideal for grape growing as it allows fruit time to slowly ripen and develop deep flavors. Merlot in particular thrives in this environment and this wine is no exception. Dark black fruit notes and savory spice characteristics complement the naturally soft and velvety palate of the wine, making each sip incredibly enjoyable." —winemaker |
