The Nevada City Winery Merlot is a beautifully crafted red wine that offers a rich and velvety taste with a balanced acidity. It has an attractive deep ruby color and an enticing aroma of ripe black cherry, plum, and hints of vanilla and oak. On the palate, this Merlot is full-bodied and smooth, with layers of dark fruit flavors, such as blackberry and blackcurrant, that are complemented by subtle notes of chocolate, tobacco, and spice.
The grapes used in the production of this wine are hand-selected from vineyards in the Sierra Foothills region, where the warm days and cool nights create the perfect conditions for growing premium Merlot grapes. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks and then aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels, which gives the wine its subtle oak influence and a smooth, elegant finish.
The Nevada City Winery Merlot is a versatile wine that pairs well with a wide range of foods, including grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and hearty pasta dishes. It is also a great wine to enjoy on its own or with friends and family. This Merlot is ready to drink now, but it can also be aged for a few years to allow its flavors and aromas to fully develop. With its impeccable balance and complexity, the Nevada City Winery Merlot is sure to impress even the most discerning wine lovers.
