Wine Maker Notes Designed to be fresh, smooth, fruity, and immediately enjoyed--the characteristics that originally endeared Merlot to American wine consumers--the wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures and aged briefly in American oak.
Food Pairing This fine-value Merlot makes an excellent accompaniment to a wide range of foods, especially chicken, beef, lamb, game, and tomato-based pastas.
Additional Notes Sutter Home Merlot is produced from grapes grown throughout California`s premier coastal and inland valley regions, including Sutter Home vineyards in the Lodi region.
