Give your Merlot a warm growing season, with soils that retain the right amount of moisture. Control your yields – that is, don’t let an individual vine produce too many grapes; otherwise the flavors get diluted and washed out. Be careful with oak-aging; give it enough to add some spice and structure, but not so much that it reeks of sawdust. And your end result is a wine like the Foggy Ridge Merlot: medium-bodied, with lots of ripe fruit – dark cherry, blackberry, black plums – and well-balanced...

Easy drinking, easy sipping. This three bottle set of 2006 Foggy Ridge Merlot, from Lake County, California, works well with barbequed foods, rich vegetarian dishes, and milder cheeses. Because of its smooth finish, the Foggy Ridge Merlot is also a good aperitif red. This medium-bodied red features lots of ripe fruit--dark cherry, blackberry, black plums--and well-balanced tannins.

92 Points The Wine News “The Canoe Ridge Estate Merlot is a refined and elegant Merlot with plenty of Washington concentration. The 2005 bottling exhibits complex aromas of black cherries and spice with dusty, restrained tannins. This is a medium-bodied versatile wine with food and will not overwhelm your meal or your palate, just your taste buds!” -Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker

With sweet scents of baked berries on the nose, the 2005 Crimson Creek Merlot exudes warm cherry and cranberry aromas, woven with vanilla, brown sugar, white pepper and a slight minty nuance. Sweet and full-bodied on the palate, the soft, fleshy fruit flavor comes to the forefront, delivering with it the firm, structured tannins that give way to an impressive finish of toast and white pepper. This wine may be enjoyed now or cellared for up to eight years.
