2020 Ancient Peaks Santa Margarita Ranch Merlot

The ideal gift! Buy the best Ancient Peaks Merlot online. Merlot excels at our estate Margarita Vineyard and has been a mainstay in our small family of wines since day one. The 2020 Merlot opens with enticing red fruit aromas joined by hints of dried herbs and toasted oak, while the 2017 Merlot opens with dusty aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, vanilla and toasted oak. A round, supple texture delivers mouthfilling flavors of raspberry, plum, black cherry, cocoa dust and baking spice in the 2020 Merlot, while a soft, rounded texture delivers mouthfilling flavors of blueberry, blackberry, cinnamon, dark chocolate and cola in the 2017 Merlot. Lingering complexities of cedar and mushroom elevate the senses on a silky, polished finish in the 2020 Merlot, while velvety tannins are finely integrated into a rich, chewy finish in the 2017 Merlot. Both Merlots showcase silky dark fruit flavors and a luscious texture, making them notable in the Paso Robles region.
