Monticello Vineyards Estate Merlot 2018

Bright red berry aromas, cherry and raspberry, dried floral tones intertwined with

hints of mocha, vanilla and cola. On the palate, I find the wine both relaxed and invigorating. There is a wonderful round midpalate that is well-balanced on a beam of acidity. The framework of gentle tannins leads this wine into a lingering finish that is both full, yet bright, and I anticipate this elegant wine will age gracefully.

Blend: 92% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc
