Moonbase Cellars 2019 Max Q Series Winesap Vineyard Merlot (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

This is a rare, 100% varietal Merlot coming from a vineyard in the Rocks District. The aromas are reductive out of the gate, causing some distraction. Beneath that are aromas and flavors of ash and firepit, with the flavors lighter in the middle. Coffee notes linger on the finish. It's equal parts intellectually interesting and hedonistically successful.
