The 2013 Dark Horse Merlot has robust flavors of jammy dark fruit layered with toasted oak, molasses and brown spice with a long, plush finish. This Merlot wine was carefully aged to develop dark fruit flavors and mocha aromas.
Dark Horse Merlot is made from a blend of hand-selected grapes grown predominantly in the Lodi and Delta winegrowing areas of California's Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. As our newest endeavor, this Merlot seeks to excite the tastes and inspire the palates of California wine enthusiasts.
Region Description
California produces the majority of wine made in the United States. Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Zinfandel and Pinot Noir dominate the wine production in California, but many other varietials thrive in the California climate. Many fine wines are produced in California using Mediterranean grapes.
