WH Merlot, 2022

Tinged with seductive crimson hues and a deep ruby core, this wine is marked by balance and elegance.  Our Merlot is redolent of smooth milk chocolate supported by inviting raspberry and black plum aromas.  The palate reveals a complex orchestration of fresh, lively acids, silky tannins, and mid-palate density with deliberate gradient transitions between flavors.  Milk chocolate flavors scintillate through the mid-palate exhibiting a soft and open mouthfeel.  This Merlot possesses the ideal combination of being approachable now, while also developing a lovely complexity over the next decade.
