Washington’s Columbia Valley has become a hotbed for Merlot and the Columbia Winery is on it. The 2016 vintage offers concentrated aromas of plum and cherry, supple tannins and a touch of oak vanillin for spice. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
