100% Merlot from Vigna Istine, is outrageously beautiful. Deep, rich and explosive, the 2020 shows just how magical this site is, even with Merlot planted at elevation. Dark-toned fruit, leather, licorice, lavender and chocolate infuse this heady, palatestaining red with tremendous intensity. It’s hard to know how the Merlot will evolve, but it sure is captivating today. 2024 - 2035
