Charles & Charles, Columbia Valley (Washington) Merlot Blend 2016

Apr 30, 2019

By Marguerite Thomas

 A dark, rich, unfined and unfiltered red wine, Charles and Charles Merlot Blend explodes on the palate with a taste sensation of perfectly ripe, juicy cherries and blackberries.  The grapes were fermented with native yeasts, then 50 percent of the blend was aged in French oak barrels.  Anyone who likes red wine will surely fall in love with this bold, beautifully balanced wine from Washington state.
