Merlot
Josh's Tasting Notes
Beautifully saturated color to the rim, our first wine with our new estate vineyard, Schafer - situated on the northeastern side of the Walla Walla Valley on heavier clay soils. Suave plum, red fruit, and perfectly complementing sweet oak. A warm vintage, this wine is generously rich, showing off dark chocolate, and saturated with grainy yet soft tannin. Drink now through 2035.
