Cascade Heights Merlot
Small allocation, everyday Merlot and Cabernet from Cascade Heights.
The story behind Cascade Heights
Merlot is a soft, plummy red grape that shows up in most of the world's great red blends and stands on its own just as well. The style runs round and generous, with dark cherry and a little cedar, and it drinks well young without needing years in a cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon, its firmer cousin, brings more structure and darker fruit.
We keep Cascade Heights in Commack as a small buy, a bottle or two at a time, so what you see is what we have.
