McIntyre Vineyards Kimberly Merlot 2019 Review
This wine comes from McIntyre's Kimberly Vineyard, a unique site in the cool-climate Arroyo Seco sub-AVA of Monterey County. This wine has shone bright for us in past vintages and it continues to impress. It has soft earthy blueberries and soil on the nose with flecks of pepper. The palate is full of plush, fleshy fruit with a great balancing acidity.
