Winemaker Gary Sitton Notes
Sonoma County has been our home for nearly twenty years, and we take great pride in crafting these wines from the County's top growers and appellations. They represent the very essence of the finest vineyards from our own back yard. Our Sonoma County Merlot has mouthfilling spice, cherry and cranberry flavors, a full-body and a soft and silky texture. A classic match for red meats and stews.
