Rodney Strong Merlot Sonoma is a red wine from Sonoma County, California, made from 100% Merlot. Rodney Strong Vineyards was founded in 1959 by Rod Strong. The Merlot is sourced from three estate vineyards in the warmer reaches of Sonoma County and spends 22 months ageing in 100% French oak barrels. The aroma brings dark cherry compote, boysenberry, cedar, pine pitch and violets, with subtle smoke and vanilla. The palate is lush and fruit-driven, with ripe black cherry, plum, toasted oak, cassis, baking spice, dried herbs and dark chocolate. Tannins are soft and silky. The finish lingers with cocoa, vanilla and mint.
