2021 Grgich Hills Estate Merlot Under $40 Channeling Julia Child’s voiceProducer: Grgich Hills Estate Region: Napa Valley, California Varietal: Merlot Year: 2021 Winemaker Notes: "This exquisite, sophisticated Merlot begins with aromas of dark cherry, raspberry and sweet ripe tomato supported by floral undertones of lilies, violets and fallen leaves. The tannins have an elegant density with a softness that is supported by fresh red fruit acidity and hints of basil. The finish is long and substantial with a hint of spice."
