Grgich Hills Merlot 2015

This is a Cabernet lover’s Merlot! Its bright flavors of strawberries, cherries, licorice and a hint of coffee are wrapped in a velvety texture that make your taste buds ask for more! The wine’s firm tannins and vibrant acidity create the perfect partner with beef tenderloin, rack of lamb, duck and barbecued pork.

Reduced at first, this wine comes around to reveal soft layers of baked plum, graham cracker and coffee. Full bodied and ripe, it offers a balanced oak nuance and a soft texture that speaks to the varietal character.
