Brilliant ruby in color, the 2016 Columbia Valley Merlot is soft, yet powerful with a nose that is filled with pencil shavings and graphite, dark and dusty plum, juicy blackberry and dark cherry. Medium to full-bodied, the mid-palate shows an expressive wine with a tight tannic grip that will make this wine age well. It ends with a long, dark plum-flavored finish. 613 cases produced
