Tasting Note

The Canyon Road Merlot is a rich, medium-bodied, well-balanced red wine with aromas of dark cherry and blackberry, layered with vanilla and hints of fresh wood.

Producer

Founded in the 1980s and inspired by the winding roads of California’s wine country, Canyon Road wines express true varietal character in the bottle. The winemaking team uses grapes from some of California’s most prestigious wine regions to bring to life the luscious fruit flavours of each unique variety. Canyon Road wines are made with food in mind. Soft and approachable, the subtle fruit flavours naturally complement a wide array of foods.

Winemaking

Canyon Road is based in California's Alexander Valley and is known for well-made wines that express true varietal flavours. Harvested at optimum ripeness, the grapes are fermented at warm temperatures to ensure intense fruit flavours and velvety smooth tannins so typical of the Merlot grape.

Fun Fact

Canyon Road wines are the pet project of winemaker Rafael Jacinto Jofre. Born in Mendoza, Argentina, he studied winemaking at Argentina's University Don Bosco and worked at well known wineries in South America. In 2004, Rafael decided to come to California and now passionately focuses on crafting wines true to their varietal characteristics. “After many years of winemaking and harvests around the world, I have realized that nothing makes me happier than bringing joy and happiness to my friends and family through a glass of wine,” says Rafael. “To see their smiles and hear their laughs while sharing a good meal enjoying my wine feels so incredibly good. There is no other feeling like it!”

Food pairing

Canyon Road wines are made with food in mind. Soft and approachable, the subtle fruit flavours naturally complement a wide array of food. Mellow Merlot goes well with roasted chicken, baked salmon, grilled meats or tomato based pasta dishes.
