Full-bodied with pronounced aromas of spiced fruit and vanilla. Notes of wild strawberry and plum are balanced by savory acidity and a peppery finish.
This was a warmer year for Suisun, producing a very ripe Merlot. It was fermented completely dry in t-bins and pressed to barrel, then aged approximately 22 months. Only 143 cases produced.
Winemaker’s Tasting Notes:
Pronounced aromas of spiced fruit, vanilla, black cherry and baking chocolate. Full bodied with notes of wild strawberry, plum, cut hay, bramble and a savory acidity. A lean and long peppery finish.
