Description
WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Quattro Theory Merlot is grown at the Antica Vineyard in Foss Valley, Atlas Peak AVA, at an elevation of 1,500 feet, benefiting from cool nights and daytime temperatures due to seasonal fog. Planted in 1996 to clone 181 on both 420A and 44-53M rootstocks, this late-ripening site allows for extended flavor development.
TASTING NOTES:
This cool climate Merlot is designed for food. It is balanced in all aspects with medium bodied red fruit, soft plum, wet earth, a hint of coffee bean, wild strawberry, black cherry, and green olive. The rich and broad palate leads to a long and juicy finish.
