St. Francis Merlot
2019, Sonoma County, California
Merlot’s intense aromatics are captured here with cherry compote, black licorice and dark chocolate on the nose before layers of rich fruit flavors of ripe plum, dried fig and bright Ranier cherry emerge. The finish is long and vibrant with baking spices and a hint of cocoa powder.
Pair with beef, duck, and blue cheese.
