2021 Rutherford Ranch Reserve Merlot
Wines
In Stock
Our 2021 Reserve Merlot has a vibrantly intense hue of dark purple going to the rim of the glass. Powerful aromas of coco nib, cedar wood, sweet oak notes and hints of savory fresh herbs. Silky smooth and elegant texture reminiscent of melted chocolate.
Flavors of rich milk chocolate covered blue berries lead to a long and extended finish with round and well-integrated tannins.
