About This Wine:
Enjoy a stroll through California wine country with every of the Fair Oaks Ranch Merlot, a bold and fruit-forward wine just bursting with notes of plum, cherry and spices, like butterscotch, caramel, and vanilla owed to oak barrel aging.
The 2016 vintage of this wine earned a 90-point gold medal at the Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition and the 2022 Merlot is equally superb.
“A great pop-and-pour crowd-pleaser,” declared our Tasting Panelist, Chris Hoel (former sommelier at Thomas Keller’s French Laundry). This Merlot pairs wonderfully with a variety of savory, meat-based dishes, such as herbed white meats, pork, and lamb.
