more about Merlot
Ravenswood Winery
Merlot

2004 Merlot
Sonoma County

Our taste in Merlot runs more toward the Old World discipline of Bordeaux than toward California goose-down comforters. The place in Sonoma to pursue that ideal is Ravenswood's own Carneros region, whose bayfront breezes and chilling fog keep things firm and well-structured. Our Sonoma County Merlot has notes of leather, smoke and green olive, plus a smattering of Sonoma Valley fruit that announces its presence with ripe plums and cherries, velvety texture and hint of brown sugar. Finally, a couple of Cabernets (Franc and Sauvignon) add backbone. In sum: a classic California version of a classic Pomerol.
