Waterstone Merlot 2015

Introduction

Waterstone Winery was formed in 2000 with the simple concept of creating luxury wines at affordable prices. Bringing together previously established relationships with Napa Valley growers and vintners, the winery set out to develop balanced wines of varietal character through intelligent sourcing. Preferring to focus on the wine itself rather than the accumulation of land and facilities, Waterstone owns no vineyards, nor does it own the facility where their wines are made. Dedicated winemaking, strong relationships with top growers and long-term grape contracts are the keys to Waterstones quality and success.

Spiced plum, baking spices and cedar predominate in the aroma. A structured and medium-bodied Merlot with rounded tannins and lingering notes of black and red cherries.
