Rancho Sisquoc 2012 Flood Family Vineyards Merlot (Santa Barbara County)

Country: US / Flood Family Vineyards
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Rancho Sisquoc / Santa Barbara County

This wine from the pioneering producer deep in the Santa Maria Valley shows sweet cedar, chopped herbs, mocha, licorice, cherry and red berry juice on the nose. The flavors cling to dried cherries and espresso, proving quite pleasant thought not extremely dynamic.
