One of the Washington wine industry’s best-kept secrets is Seven Hills. Its wines are beautifully balanced and impeccably made across the board. The 2016 Merlot is another home run, showing notes of black cherry and red currant with a fleshy palate, hints of wood spice and supple tannins. A steal at the price.
