Red ruby color and aromas of blackberry and blueberry fruit integrated with aromatic cedar, cinnamon, clove, dark chocolate. Dark cherry flavors deliver a deep rich profile delivering from the initial sip continuing on the palate for a very long fruitful finish. Spectacular.

Vineyard Notes
Stagecoach Vineyard—Atlas Peak (100%): These grapes were sorted from the Atlas Peak area of the Stagecoach Vineyard, located north east of Napa at approximately 1500 ft elevation. Composed of ancient volcanic soils, the vineyard is carved out of rocky terrain, sage brush and chaparral. The grape vines struggle in this environment, creating grapes that are small and very concentrated. The Merlot grapes ripen very evenly, yielding great dark cherry depth with an incredible distinctiveness that can only be derived from the terroir of Stagecoach.
