Sterling Vintners Merlot

A smooth and silky dry red, this deeply concentrated Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection California Merlot Red Wine tastes way above the price point. Mixed berry notes and spices through and through, with a hint of tempting mocha make for a full-bodied drinking experience. This Merlot wine is best paired with mushrooms, roasted beef, or dark chocolate. Sterling Vineyards was founded in 1964 by Oxford graduate and successful businessman Peter Newton. As one of only 27 bonded wineries in Napa Valley at the time, Newton was an early pioneer of crafting Bordeaux-inspired red wines in California and helped transform the region into the premier winemaking appellation we know today.
