Chateau Ste. Michelle Cold Creek Vineyard Merlot 2007

n Cold Creek Vineyard enjoys one of the longest and warmest growing seasons in the Columbia Valley. Low yielding old vines produce small clusters and small berries,
resulting in intense varietal flavors and deep color. The site's silty loam soil and the area's low annual rainfall force the vines to struggle, producing fruit with concentrated flavors and aromas.

Cold Creek's 35-year-old vines deliver a big, bold Merlot. This wine is loaded with dark fruit flavors and hints of dark chocolate. This our most intense and concentrated Merlot.

Pairs well with lamb, pasta, beef, fowl
