This Merry Edwards Meredith Estate Pinot Noir is a delightful expression of the Russian River Valley's warm climate. Its bright red fruit flavors are balanced by a hint of oak, creating an elegant and complex wine with layers of flavor. On the nose, aromas of black cherry and strawberry lead the way, while subtle notes of earth and herbs fill out the background. On the palate, flavors of ripe plum, red currant, and spice mingle with a touch of sweet oak and a hint of clove. The finish is long and smooth, with a hint of leather and a touch of dried herbs lingering on the tongue. This is an excellent example of classic Pinot Noir, perfect for sharing with friends.
