Description

Twomey Cellars Merlot is a vivacious wine that displays ideal ripeness from a uniquely cool California vintage. It has a dark garnet color and a complex nose of cherry liqueur, dark chocolate, pipe tobacco, lavender, cloves and hazelnut. On the palate, it has a velvety mouthfeel, a full body, beautiful acid balance and a long, juicy finish.

The Winery

The Duncan family established Twomey Cellars in 1999, they use the same philosophy that has guided Silver Oak since its founding in 1972. Twomey's founding winemaker, Daniel Baron, developed his passion for Merlot during the early 1980s while working in Chateau Petrus and Dominus Estate.
