Our Winemaker Select wines are chosen from some of the best barrels in our cellar. We loved how this Merlot stood out for being rich, yet elegant and approachable in its youth. The wine was aged in American oak barrels adding just the right touch of complexity and is marrying wonderfully together with the primary red fruits of raspberry and red currants. The grapes were solely sourced from Churchcreek Vineyard in the Santa Clara Valley AVA.
