Dave Harvey Walla Walla Valley Merlot 2021
About the wine
The Cabernet lover's Merlot
- If you’re a fan of Dave’s bold reds, you’re going to love his bold take on Merlot. It’s big and burly with flavors like lip-smacking cherries and tantalizing spices from aging in small American and French oak barrels.
- Angel support gave Dave the opportunity to harvest premium grapes from some of Walla Walla’s best and most well-known vineyards to make his first Merlot for you at a steal of a deal.
- This rich Merlot calls for the outdoors – like a camping trip – sitting around a fire pit and paired with ribeye. This red is well worth your attention – love Merlot or not, this is the wine that will convince you it’s worth a try, try and try again.
Best before
Will easily age for 10 years, but drinkable now.
Serving advice
Open and decant 20 minutes before serving.
Food match
I love ribeye and a veggie stir fry with my Walla Walla Merlot!
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Dave Harvey
You freed a powerhouse Washington winemaker – Dave Harvey is quite the catch.
With your backing, he's combing the state – from the Columbia Valley river basin to southern Walla Walla – to make Northwest classics (and seriously shocking red blends, too... like his signature GSMmm Syrah!)
He's already clinched a Decanter award for the “Best Rhône varietal wine in the world.” Mark our words - now that Dave has Angel funding, that’s just a drop in the bucket.
