The Milbrandt Vineyards Traditions Merlot 2012 is a rich, classic Merlot that will be a perfect addition to any dinner party. Made from grapes grown in the Columbia Valley, this wine benefits from the south-facing slopes of the vineyard and the optimal sun exposure. The resulting grapes and wine are ripe, juicy, and rich with flavor. Expect aromas and flavors of blackberry, plum, mocha, espresso, and a suggestion of dried herbs. The entry is juicy and ripe, and the palate is lush and fruity. A hint of vanilla crème finishes this elegant wine.
