Description
The 2019 Stone Valley Merlot was produced from a blend of grape lots sourced from select Northern California vineyards. Fully mature grapes were gently crushed and fermented in our rotary fermenters. This process moderates fermentation temperatures and allows for full color extraction and maximum flavor development without using excessive heat or giving harsh tannin qualities. The final blend included Cabernet Franc and Ruby Cabernet, which further lends to a bright fruit character in this wine.
