The grapes for this Merlot grow on low-yield plots of the Goldberg vineyard—the calcareous marl soil gives the wine a mineral backbone that distinguishes it from softer, fruit-forward Merlot styles. The grapes are harvested by hand after a four-week maceration period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, dark blackberry, plum, and a hint of tobacco are revealed, supported by a ripe tannin structure and a pleasantly long finish.
