Winemaker Notes: 

"Our 2017 Merlot Over and Play Dead is medium-ruby in color and opens with fruit-forward aromas and flavors of red plums and cherries, with hints of black pepper spice and savory notes of tea leaf. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, nicely balanced and with a smooth, though dry finish. 

Winemaker Brenda Lynch is very excited about her 2017 Merlot. For the first time, she sourced her Merlot grapes from an amazing vineyard in Russian River Valley, Sonoma County. She then aged the wine for 11 months in used French oak barrels to add richness and complexity. What a combination! Beautiful ripe red fruits are followed by spicy herbs and savory notes... simply delicious!" 

Pairing Suggestions: 

"We look for food pairings that combine Merlot's natural affinity for beef with flavors that match the savory qualities of the wine. Our favorite is grilled hamburger, medium rare, covered in sauteed shitake mushrooms. A close second is meatloaf smothered in smokey bbq sauce." 

Alcohol: 13.5%
