Stimson Estate Cellars Merlot

Merlot Grape Variety

The majority of Merlot is grown in its native France, with the United States coming in second, followed by Spain and Italy. The best Merlot is said to grow in vineyards with struggling hillside vines. Flavors of raspberry chocolate, sugar plum, black berry and cedar.

Because of its unique ability to add softness and fruit to a wine, Merlot grape is often used to blend with other grapes, especially Cabernet Sauvignon to produce some of the finest wines in the world. However, since its arrival in America, the winemakers particularly in the California’s Napa Valley often make wines using 100% Merlot grape.

Washington State

Eastern Washington experiences less precipitation due to the surrounding Cascade mountain range. The lower temperatures delay ripening and help to retain fresh fruit aromatics and mouthwatering acidity.
