The Kenwood® Vineyards Reserve Merlot is crafted from choice barrel lots produced from our best vineyards located in Dry Creek, Sonoma and Alexander Valleys. The small production of roughly 800 cases represents less than one percent of our total Merlot production.

Multi-layered aromas of black raspberries and chocolate covered cherries with just a hint of mint give this distinctive Merlot a rich mouthfeel, followed by an elegant and smooth finish.
