Northstar Merlot 2018 is a Merlot from Columbia Valley, Washington State, produced by Northstar Winery. The 2018 vintage used 40% whole berries, with fermentation on the skins for five to seven days and daily punch downs. The wine was matured in 100% French oak barrels, 34% of them new, and underwent malolactic fermentation. Approximately 4,993 cases were produced. Aromas include dark roasted coffee bean, bittersweet chocolate, dark plum, cedar bark and warm baking spice. The palate is soft and round, with black cherry and boysenberry, firm tannins and bright acidity.
