Kendall Jackson Vintner's Reserve Merlot
89 Point by Wine Enthusiast "There's good cut to this minerally red, which features luscious raspberry, dark plum and blackberry flavors. Well-structured, with a spicy and chocolaty finish. Drink now through 2020."

Winemaking
Aged about one year in French (62%) and American (37%) oak for a wine that is strong and round, roughly 14% of which is new. Artisan winemaking techniques such as pre-fermentation, cold soaking on the skins, saignée method and gentle pumpovers were used to enhance and simultaneously soften the tannins, deepen the color, and intensify the flavors.
Tasting Notes
Our Vintner's Reserve Merlot has intricate layers of black cherry, plum, currant, and wild berry that mingle with a hint of spice. The soft, delicate tannins of this Bordeaux varietal carry these aromas and flavors to a long lingering finish.
