Tasting Notes

Planted in the 1970s, Cold Creek is one of Washington's oldest and most acclaimed vineyards. Character builds season after season in the growth rings of the old woody vines. Sun-drenched growing conditions with low rainfall result in small berries with full-bodied flavors. This Merlot has broad-shouldered structure, concentrated fruit characters and deep color.
