Northstar 'Walla Walla' Merlot 2006
Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from some of Walla Walla’s best vineyard sites are showcased here. Planted in 1995, Vanessa Vineyards is located on the Oregon side of the appellation and contributed both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to this vintage. Windrow Vineyard produces fruit with small berries as a result of little to no added water through irrigation. The resulting fruit provides concentrated black cherry flavors, structure and complexity to the blend.
