A blend of fruit from Sonoma and Napa, the Ghost Pines Merlot is layered with flavors of dark berries, licorice and espresso alongside lots of richness, full-bodied structure, and desirable length. In addition to these flavors, hints of cigar paper, cocoa, caramel and nutmeg wrapped around a remarkably smooth mid-palate full of velvety texture and depth. On the long finish, suggestions of toasty oak, mouth-filling black fruit, and cola framed by plush tannins.
