Tasting Notes

This complex yet approachable Merlot is produced by Chateau Ste. Michelle, the founding winery of Washington State. The wine offers aromas of black cherry, leather and spice with layers of rich, dark red fruit flavours and a long, smooth, sweet finish. A touch of Syrah adds a jammy fruit character which transforms this “everyday red” into something out of the ordinary.
