Cathedral Ridge Winery 2018 Merlot

Published: August 29, 2022

This Columbia Valley Merlot is juicy with flavors of blueberry, blackberry and chocolate that are met by firm tannins carrying textured hints of finely ground espresso and a hint of earthy clay-pot minerality lingering through the dry finish. It presents complex and rich aromas of black plum and dark berries that mix with notes of cedar, baking spice, red bell pepper and a hint of vanilla.
