Tasting Notes With its plush, luxurious taste, and gorgeous garnet color, our alcohol-removed Merlot delivers plenty of style and grace. With seductive black plum aromas and soft cherry and spice flavors, our Merlot is velvety smooth, with a full, rich finish—a classic beauty. Vineyard & Winemaking We source our Merlot from California's finest marine-influenced vineyards, where the grapes develop concentrated flavors and complexity during an extended growing period. Our winemakers carefully craft our Merlot using traditional methods and our exclusive spinning cone process, which gently removes the alcohol while preserving the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. Pairs Wonderfully With: Herb-crusted lamb chops, hearty stews, juicy hamburgers, pizza and movie night.
