Tasting notes: With aromas of coffee, tobacco leaf, and dark plums, this Estate Merlot has flavors of bright blackberries that are complemented by hints of dark chocolate in the finish.
About the winery: Produced by the Brutocao family, the Bliss Wines carry on the legacy of their grandfather Irv Bliss, who purchased and planted the original 450-acre ranch. Bliss Vineyards has some of the oldest post-Prohibition vines in Mendocino County.
