2019 Merlot, Picazo Vineyard
Our 2019 Merlot, from Picazo Vineyard in the Livermore Valley, is a sensory delight that unfolds with elegance and complexity. The nose reveals a captivating blend of red and black fruits – red plum, redcurrant, black plum, black cherry, blackcurrant, and blackberry – complemented by subtle spice and oak notes of licorice, toast, nutmeg, cloves, and chocolate. On the palate, it offers a full-bodied experience with soft, smooth tannins and a rich medley of black plum, black cherry, and blackberry jam, enhanced by toasty hints of sweet baking spices. The finish is beautifully balanced, with acidity harmonizing with the lingering essence of ripe black fruits, leaving a lasting impression that makes this Merlot a true gem from the Livermore Valley.
