Cannonball Wines sources this vibrant Merlot from three distinct California regions—Mendocino, Lake County, and Santa Clara Valley—each contributing unique terroir characteristics from coastal fog influences to volcanic soils that create complexity in this accessible wine. Winemaker Ondine Chattan employs sustainable farming practices and precise techniques including night harvesting and cold soaking to preserve the fruit's natural vibrancy, followed by 20 months aging in French oak. This 2022 Merlot delivers approachable flavors of ripe plum and blackberry with subtle vanilla and spice notes from oak aging, showcasing a smooth, medium-bodied profile with balanced acidity that reflects the diverse microclimates of California's premier winegrowing regions—perfect for both casual enjoyment and food pairing.
