Handmade Estate Merlot

Handmade Estate Merlot

In the heart of the Foley Johnson Rutherford Estate, our Merlot is farmed in the famous “Rutherford Dust” that yields small, yet intense clusters from well-balanced vines. The ideal growing conditions in the vineyard allow our Bordeaux varietals to reach full maturity on the vine without taking on any green, leafy taste of under-ripe fruit.

Tasting Notes

This wine entices the senses with earthy aromas of dried herbs and nutmeg married with ripe plum and raspberry jam. The elegant palate exudes a freshness, lifting layers of ripe cherry, blackberry and mocha through the finish. We recommend pairing with roast duck with a cherry glaze reduction, or brie cheese.
