Franciscan harvests Merlot from a variety of Napa Valley vineyards, including their own in the heart of the Oakville District. When tannin maturity and flavor development have reached their optimum stage the grapes are harvested, and not a moment before. This fanaticism for ripeness is evident in their Merlot, a wine that is plush, elegant and expresses remarkable concentrated fruit flavors with their hallmark supple tannins. |
