Robert Mondavi Private Selection Merlot

Description

Monterey County in the Central Coast is just the kind of place Merlot grapes love to grow. Not too warm, not too cold, with an ocean breeze and wetter soil than most of the region. This temperate terroir makes our coastal Merlot ripe, round, and silky – just what a Merlot should be. Aromas: Dark cherry, ripe plum, milk chocolate, and roasted coffee Flavors: Cherry pie, plum jam, and mocha coffee with oak layered over the top Texture: Big, full, and rich. Ripe tannin for a long, silky finish. Pair Central Coast Merlot with: Barbecued chicken, spaghetti Bolognese, mushroom risotto, or a grilled burger
