2018 Alexander Valley Merlot

The Buena Vista Vinicultural Society was formed in 1863 by the winerys founder, Count Agoston Haraszthy, to further improve its winemaking prowess and expand its vineyards. The Vinicultural Society has been restored as a collection of unique small-production wines that honor the winerys pioneering spirit and contribution to California winemaking. The collection of wines explores clonal selections, varietals and the incredible terroir of Northern California. The Vinicultural Society explores clonal selections, varietals and the incredible terroir of Sonoma County. In keeping with the adventurous spirit of Buena Vistas founding, we are proud to bring you this 2018 Merlot from the Alexander Valley.

The 2018 Alexander Valley Merlot jumps from the glass with lively aromas of blackberries, black plum, and cherry. On the palate this wine is complex with layers of strawberry jam, vanilla, and caramel. This fruit forward wine is luscious and elegant in the mouth with a silky and lingering finish.

The 2018 growing season started off with cooler temperatures which was followed by a moderate summer with fewer heat spikes than normal. Fruit set
was consistent and with the milder weather, harvest began a few weeks later compared to the last few years. This longer and near-perfect growing season has resulted in structured and concentrated wines.
