St. Francis Sonoma County Merlot 2019

Bottle

The grapes are gently de-stemmed and crushed before cold soaking for three days to extract optimal color and flavor. The fruit is inoculated with several different yeast strains to build complexity and fermented in separate lots. Secondary malolactic fermentation occurs in 100% French oak barrels. 18% new. This polished Merlot shows off layered aromas and flavors of espresso, red cherry and chocolate that finish with a touch of savory spices. Medium-to-full bodied with good structure and a long, lingering finish.
