Rodney Strong Sonoma County Merlot

Our 2023 Sonoma County Merlot is velvety soft with notes of sweet black cherry, boysenberry compote and cassis. Medium bodied with lush tannins, this wine boasts toasty oak and spice on the mid-palate punctuated by a full and lively finish. These luscious dark fruit and toasty flavors are enhanced by a kiss of new French oak. Enjoy this soft and elegant Merlot with grilled pork chops and cherry reduction, rosemary crusted lamb shanks or creamy polenta with a short rib ragu.
