100% Merlot sourced from the historic Keyes Vineyard located in Howell Mountain - one of Napa Valley's most prestigious hillside AVAs. Howell Mountain's high altitude and abundant sunlight produces wines of great depth, complexity and age-ability. This wine is indicative of its mountain terroir with aromas and flavors of  black olives, black figs, salty licorice, black plum and black cardamon.
