Pride Mountain Merlot 2022
The 2022 Merlot from Pride Mountain Vineyards is a testament to the opulence and finesse of mountain fruit. With dominant aromas of blackberries, this wine unfurls into notes of black cherry, ripe plum, bay, and chocolate, with a touch of sage. Its balanced acidity and supple tannin structure provide a long, luxurious finish, making it stunning now and capable of impressing for years to come.
Composition: 100% Merlot
Winemaking: Traditional fermentation in stainless steel
Aging: 18 months in French oak barrels
Wine Critic Reviews
James Suckling (N/A): Lush aromas of Damson plums, blackcurrants and dried herbs. The palate is full-bodied with finely integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of mocha, blueberry bush, graphite and licorice. Well balanced and textural. Drink or hold.
