Wente Vineyards Sandstone Merlot 2022 0,75l

Wente Sandstone Merlot is sourced from gently rolling hills on the edge of California’s Livermore Valley, where sandstone‑rich soils shape the wine’s character. On the nose it offers ripe strawberry, cherry and blackberry alongside fig, subtle roast notes, caramel and vanilla. On the palate the Merlot is soft and smooth, with ripe, juicy fruit and inviting, rounded tannins. Delicate spice, toast and cocoa tones add complexity without hiding the freshness. The finish is long, harmonious and silky, with lingering berry and spice aromas. An elegant Californian Merlot that matches beautifully with tomato‑based pasta, grilled vegetables, poultry or mild cheeses.
