A 100% California Merlot bottled at 13% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Raymond Vineyards was established in 1970 in Napa Valley and is now part of the Boisset Collection. This expression carries the "Set No. 3" designation, referencing the winemaking team of Stephanie Putnam, Kathy George and Jean-Charles Boisset. Grapes are hand-picked, crushed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with full skin contact. The wine then ages for 10 months in seasoned French and American oak barrels. The nose shows blackcurrant, fig, violet, warm baking spice and underlying earthiness. The palate is juicy with black cherry, plum, raspberry and toasted almond, with fine structured tannins and a plush, round mouthfeel. The finish is medium-long with toasty vanilla, dark fruit and gentle spice.
