2019 Merlot   

Some count Merlot as the second-most planted grape in the world (behind Cabernet). But as you know, Nello produces no common wine. So it’s no surprise this Merlot displays full-flavored character, dark and rich, round and generous, lingering and lovely.

It consistently wins high praise and Gold medals. The prestigious Orange County Fair named it Best of Class. Both Merlot lovers and rookies will certainly come together over this.

PAIR with everyday foods that are tomato-y, creamy, bacony, or mushroomy, roasted poultry, lamb, short ribs, roasted vegetables, pasta salads.
