FoRevER CoOL - mErLOt

the story
The Age of Aquarius has come and gone, but some things never go out of style. Like flowers, peace and a nice glass of Merlot. Let's take a moment to toast the sisters who march on to the beat of a different drummer. Nobody stays forever young. But you will always be forever cool. And for that, we salute you. Sip on!

what’s in it?
94% Merlot
6% Malbec

how was it made?
Warm ferments (80F+) mixed frequently for color extraction and fruit characters.

smells like
...ripe summer berries with a touch of vanilla.

tastes like
...lush berries lead into a lingering cocoa powder finish.

yummy with
Portobello mushroom burgers, grilled tuna, braised lamb shanks, aged jack cheese.
