Francis Ford Coppola Diamond Collection Merlot Blue Label 2016 |
A nice wine, though a tad too sweet for my palate. Medium body and a deep purple color. An explosion of ripe red fruit on my palate, smooth with a hint of pepper and slight tartness.
A vibrant California Merlot, displaying luscious plum and red raspberry flavors.
Sourced from the same core of Merlot grape-growers since premiere vintage in 1997.
Our Merlot combines fruit from Napa, Sonoma and Monterey. The flavors and textures unique to each region harmonize perfectly to create a wine that has dark succulent fruit balanced by natural acidity. Intense aromatics of raspberry and blueberry lead to flavors of crushed berries, vanilla and leather, which are wrapped up in a soft, smooth tannin structure.
