A marriage of 69% Semillon and 31% Chardonnay, Merry Cellars’ lively interpretation of this classic blend echoes an abundance found only on the Palouse. fragrant and deep—aromas of honeyed fi g, lemongrass and melon invite the senses. Enhanced by crisp acidity and notes of spiced apple, the bouquet is mirrored on the palate and maintains its presence through a long lingering finish.
Both the 2010 Semillon and 2010 Chardonnay were barrel fermented in new Hungarian oak for 8 and 11 weeks, respectively before being returned to stainless steel.
