J. Lohr Merlot Los Osos 750ml
Product Description
The J. Lohr Estates Los Osos Merlot is medium-dark in color with a red hue. Varietal aromas of black plum and violet meld with the light barrel signature of baking spices and toasted pastry. A generous fraction of Malbec in the blend accentuates bright fruit tones and contributes notes of pomegranate and hibiscus flower. This wine is lively and bright on the palate and cascades to a lengthy, red-fruit finish. It's named after the slightly heavier Los Osos series soils in Paso Robles, which have proven to be the perfect medium for growing lush, flavorful Merlot. This wine has earned the Certified California Sustainable seal. A generous fraction of Malbec in the blend accentuates red fruit and violet notes.

Expert Reviews
Made with grapes from the temperate El Pomar District and aged 12 months in Ameri- can oak, this is a distinguished, lush red. Ripe boysenberry melds with milk chocolate on the luxurious entry, and the creamy mouthfeel is graced with vanilla spice and violets.
Clean lines of black cherry and warm baking spices draw the nose into this widely available bottling, perfect for midweek enjoyment. Smooth tannins retain just enough edge on the palate to balance the cherry cordial and toasty wood flavors.
