ABOUT THIS WINE:
Osier
Merlot – Malbec
This exceptional wine is part of our Fine Wine Collection.
Winemaking Blending wine is truly an art form as winemakers skillfully test different proportions to unlock the perfect varietal balance. In this case, a 50/50 split in the magic number. Merlot drives the wine’s elegant profile, floral notes, and bright fruit, while Malbec brings its darker fruit character, earthiness, and structure. Oak adds a final layer of spice before the cork is sealed on a multilayered masterpiece.
Vintage The 2022 growing season was a beautiful one in the vineyards of Sonoma Coast. Sun-loving Merlot and Malbec enjoyed a warm, dry ripening season without the interruption of summer storms. High heat in early autumn meant harvest was pushed up in order to capture the perfect balance of ripe fruit flavor and natural acidity.

WINE REGION:
Sonoma Coast
Stretching along California's raw and rugged northern shores—and reaching quite far inland—Sonoma Coast is the largest AVA in Sonoma County. The proximity to the ocean makes wines here very different from those from more central AVAs. Whether the vineyards are on high ridges above the fog line or warm, fog-shrouded valley floors, the marine soils, low temperatures and cool Pacific breezes slow the ripening of the grapes. The result? Highly structured, delicate wines with plenty of acidity. The main stars here are white peach-tinged Chardonnay and wild strawberry-flavored Pinot Noir, but you will also find some excellent cool-climate Syrah with notes of white pepper and cherry.
