Great Value
Washington Merlot
It's Cool to Go Against the Grain!
Arbor Crest Merlot 06
Natalie's Estate
Rock Horse Ranch 06
Substance Merlot 06
Here's a secret: while Merlot became the "uncool" grape after
"Sideways," Washington wineries were still producing world-class
Merlot. Bold, rich, and full of fruit, these Washington Merlots are
delicious for sipping or with any hearty food.
Plus, they're super
value!
 Substance Merlot 06
$19.95/$17.95
from Gramercy Cellars
Substance Merlot 06 is a delicious mouthful of great value Washington wine. Plums and dark currants move to sweeter notes of red cherries on the finish. Soft and round in texture, the Substance has hints of herbal spice accenting the juicy finish.
A collaborative effort between Walla Walla's Gramercy Cellars and Waters Wineries.
 Arbor Crest Merlot 04
$19.95/$17.95
Wine Spectator 89 points. "Dark and juicy, a lively mouthful of blackberry, cassis and hints of smoke as the finish persists impressively. Attractive now, but should develop more depth as it settles in. Best from 2009 through 2014. 1,684 cases made." –HS
A great Merlot for hearty, winter foods. Try it with a simple pot roast--mmmm, bring on the snow!
 Natalie's Estate
Rock Horse Ranch 06
$17.95/$16.16
A whole lot of Merlot: Rich, sweet cherry and plum flavors with elements of meatiness, mint, and black pepper on the finish. Nicely strucured for drinking over the next few years. Sourced from the Rock Horse Ranch Vineyard in Washington State. Only 100 cases produced.
