2017 Swanson Merlot, Napa Valley, California, USA

Subtle nose of red fruits, a hint of milk chocolate and a touch of parsley. On the palate intense plums, strawberries and briar rush across the palate. As the wine opens up, blueberry notes become evident.

Situated on fluvial soils deposited from the ever changing course of the Napa River, this vineyard benefits from good drainage, perfect sun exposure and readily available nutrients. The vines are set upon quad trellising to protect the grapes from too much sun exposure allowing for a long hang time, with plenty of time for the grapes to ripen to their full potential.
