Jonata Winery
Fenix Santa Ynez Valley Merlot Blend
Santa Ynez Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Jonataβs first Merlot based wine, 84% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot, . Dense Ruby color swirling in the glass. The nose was lush with blue and black fruits, complex, yet subtle spice, with smoky notes. The palate revealed a luxurious wine with plump blueberry and plum flavors, vanilla oak with pepper and herb notes. The wine is well balanced with a great mouthfeel, soft tannins, pleasant acidity and finishes with a lingering ending noting some espresso notes. 227 cases. Tasting Sample.

My first true experience with the Santa Ynez Valley did not disappoint.
