This famous Bordeaux variety with loose, large berry clusters is the most widely planted grape in France but thrives in our Virginia climate. Compared to other popular red varieties, Merlot has thinner skin and less seeds which provides its characteristic smooth, velvety smooth finish. After a crushed skin contact fermentation, this wine underwent malolactic fermentation prior to aging in the finest oak casks. Merlot is unique in that it can take on a variety of flavors reflective of where and how it was grown. If the taste of this wine is any indication, our location and methods are well suited to highlight the potential of Merlot grapes!
