2008 Conner Lee Merlot : Columbia Valley

The fruit from Conner Lee Vineyard has been so special the last few years that we have decided to show this wine on its own. This is the second 100% Merlot bottling from :Nota Bene and a tribute to Conner Lee’s success. Located on Radar Hill near Othello, its cool location and significant elevation produce big black cherry/berry flavors and lush smooth tannins contribute to a round, full finish. Bottled on 6/26/10; Only 75 cases were produced; pH 3.63, TA 6.73 g/L.
