2016 Sequoia Grove Merlot Napa Valley

Sequoia Grove is a family-owned winery founded in 1979 in a 110-year old barn beneath a grove of Sequoia trees in Rutherford, Napa Valley. It is here where we’ve honed our craft of creating world-class Cabernet Sauvignon and other Napa Valley wines that emphasize elegance, finesse, structure and balance. Our consistent philosophy of making wines with varietal character that are reflective of the land helped establish Sequoia Grove as one of the premier Cabernet Sauvignon producers in Napa Valley. Our 24-acre Estate Vineyard and 50-acre Tonella Ranch Vineyard are both located in the heart of Rutherford, where the superb climate and gravelly-loam soils impart distinct flavor in the Bordeaux varieties.

TASTING NOTE

Aromas of freshly baked mixed berry pie burst from the glass. On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied, full of ripe cherry and red fruits. It is round and mouth-filling with a bright finish, making it an excellent wine to pair with food. Winery Exclusive Silver Medal- SF Chronicle Wine Competition
