WINE DESCRIPTION

Bedell Merlot is a premium red wine produced by Bedell Cellars, a renowned winery located in the North Fork of Long Island, New York. The wine is made from Merlot grapes grown in the winery's sustainably farmed vineyards, which benefit from the region's maritime climate and sandy soils. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in French oak barrels for 12-18 months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Merlot grape, with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. Bedell Merlot is a perfect choice for those who appreciate a well-crafted, terroir-driven wine with a sense of place.
