2018 Atlas Peak Merlot

2018 Atlas Peak Merlot

Fresh fig aromas play off the subtle bay leaf and sage nose. Coming from the high elevation of the Napa Valley, this wine offers fresh raspberry and allspice on the palate leaving a beautifully vibrant Merlot. Coming from Stagecoach Vineyard at the top of the Atlas Peak in Napa Valley, this wine leans more old world, right bank style. 2018 offered extremely slow ripening due to the steadily warm climates, longer hangtime gave us a lean, yet flavorful harvest.
