Canoe Ridge Vineyard 2015 The Expedition Merlot, Horse Heaven Hills, $16
By Great Northwest Wine on December 23, 2017
Walla Walla Valley winemaker Bill Murray offers a rather classic example of Washington Merlot with this contribution from two Precept-controlled sites – The Benches and Canoe Ridge Vineyard. The nose of Chukar Cherry, orange zest and California peppercorns transitions to flavors of ripe strawberry, which are joined by cherry pie juice, plum skins and blueberry seed. It’s filled with acidity, tannin and fruit.
Rating: Excellent
Production: 12,000 cases
Alcohol: 14.1%
