Trefethen Merlot

Description

Smooth and fresh, this wine opens with ripe raspberry, cherry, plum, and a touch of dark chocolate. On the palate, darker fruit flavors of black cherry and boysenberry emerge with layered herbal notes leading to a long, juicy finish.

This bright and elegant Merlot pairs well with Italian cuisine and savory dishes, like roasted chicken, mushrooms, and parmesan. Winery Chef Chris Kennedy suggests pairing it with his roasted mushrooms with arugula and potato-parsnip purée.
