Shiloh's Secret Reserve Merlot might be mistaken for one of the legendary wines of Pomerol, but on closer consideration is a spectacular representation of Judean Hills terroir. Mellow yet intense, it pours a deep red color with aromas of ripe raspberry, spicy redcurrant, and Dutch cocoa. Over a mouth-filling texture and voluptuous tannins, intense cherry flavors lead into a long finish with rich butterscotch and vanilla from 20 months of aging in French oak barrels. It pairs well with chicken and gnocchi.
