Our second vintage of Merlot is extremely exciting since this is the first vintage crafted entirely at our state-of-the-art, gravity-feed winery. We always give extra care to our hand-harvested grapes, but this vintage also received very gentle handling at the winery. The gravity-feed system and proprietary shaker table allowed us to hand-sort each individual cluster before the grapes moved to the fermentation tanks, then by gravity to the caves 38' below.
The Pepper Bridge Merlot is bright, featuring deep flavors of cherry, cassis and violet with an intriguing hint of roasted coffee, spice and a bit of licorice. The wine shows our trademark elegant style with a firmly sculpted framework of acid and polished tannins. It aged 19 months in 66% new and 34% seasons oak, 95% French.
Bottle Size: .750
