Hand-harvested from the Ehret Family’s estate Bavarian Lion Vineyards located in Sonoma’s Knights Valley, the Ehret 2016 Merlot unleashes an abundance of dense fruit flavors. Waves of Santa Rosa plum, black raspberry, red cherry, and light olive notes open up to layers of hot cocoa infused with vanilla. The rich aromatics lead into a similarly rich and savory mouth feel that’s supported by well-structured yet soft tannins. Overall, the copious layering of complex fruit notes are the hallmark of this special bottling. Enjoy!
