Drumheller Merlot is crafted from grapes grown in the Columbia Valley, Washington, where the arid climate and sandy soils contribute to concentrated fruit flavors. This Merlot undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve its fresh fruit character, followed by aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels, adding subtle spice and complexity. The wine exhibits ripe plum and dark cherry notes, balanced by soft tannins and a smooth finish. It is designed to be approachable and versatile, suitable for both casual sipping and pairing with a variety of dishes.
