Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Merlot Mt. George delivers vague plums and underbrush scents with touches of unsmoked cigars and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied, innocuous and chewy in the mouth with just enough simple fruit.

Silverado's 2016 Merlot Mt. George Vineyard is a very pretty, understated wine with terrific purity of fruit and lovely balance. Perfumed, floral notes bring lift to a core of bright red cherry and red plum fruit. Deceptively in its mid-weight structure, the Mt. George Merlot is silky, expressive and distinctive. Drink it over the next handful of years.
