Tasting Notes

Our 2022 Merlot varietal wine sourced from the Meek Vineyard in Yakima Valley, WA, is built to be an easy-drinking yet serious rendition and exhibit of Washington State Merlot. Balanced in both aromatics and palate as this showcases deep dark fruit aromatics with earthy undertones, and this continues directly to the palate with a smooth and silky structure cradled by ample soft tannins and a bountiful acidic backbone.

Special Notes about Region and Varietal

It’s made from the deep Yakima Valley, WA, near Benton City, WA, at Meek Vineyard at 600ft above sea level and has a slightly earthier character than the estate vineyards of Napa Valley. Combined with the cooler climate nights, warmer climate daytime, and dry climate zone, this vineyard allows the Merlot to ripen perfectly while retaining the optimal level of acidity to make an enviable expression of this noble red varietal.
