Langtry Merlot "TEPHRA RIDGE" Lake County 750mL
Vintage: | 2021 |
---|---|
Description: | Tephra ("ash" in Greek) is rock ejected by volcanic eruption. This steep, 35 acre historic vineyard rises to 1,800 feet in elevation at the north foothill of Howell Mountain. Its thin, gravelly loam and volcanic soils typify the finest Bordeaux variety sites, as do its climate, topography and vegetation - fir, madrone, black oak and ponderosa pine - yielding a rustic fruit profile. The 2021 Tephra Ridge Merlot has notes of bramble berry with coffee and striking dried sage notes. Playful acidity throughout, with dark fruit, dried sage, and an earth driven profile. Integrated, silky tannins highlight the French and Hungarian oak used to age this wine. |
