Ands 2019 Merlot Mendoza, Argentina

Description

The high elevation vineyards of Mendoza, Argentina are idyllic for growing bold red wines. The 2019 growing season was long and slow with a cold winter and a dry spring. Once late spring and early summer hit it was off to the races and harvest happened about 2 weeks earlier than usual as fruit was in pristine condition. This Merlot is a beautiful expression of what can come from the region. Dark blue fruit flavors and a sweet spiciness meld with ripe tannins. Fruit forward but not overly concentrated, this wine is plush, easy-drinking, and guaranteed to be enjoyed by even those who claim to not like Merlot!
