They sold this vineyard but Casey planted this in the early 80's. This is 100% merlot lots of red plum and cherry fruit with notes of herbs and light spice. A very juicy merlot with smooth silky tannins. Finish 35+. Excellent

I am legitimately stunned how well this wine goes with pan seared salmon, despite how "big" it is.

Washington is great for Merlot. Seven Hills is known for being a beacon of sorts. They are generally the first to harvest. This is from their top Merlot blocks from the 37 year old vines in their estate vineyard. Seven Hills wines age like crazy and their Merlot based stuff calls more to the Right Bank in Bordeaux than the new world. Living in Washington, I think I view Seven Hills like listening to the Beatles or The Stones. Too much looking for the new thing & not listening enough to what one knows is great. This is great.
