Description

With roots deeply anchored in the Napa Valley, William Hill Estate crafts luxury Chardonnay and Bordeaux varietal wines from the undiscovered vineyards of California’s most celebrated regions. Beginning with William Hill Estate’s 140-acre benchland vineyard near the Silverado Trail, Winemaker Mark Williams turns to the hidden corners of southern Napa, the North Coast and the Central Coast to create a unique collection of rich, expressive wines.

The grapes for our Central Coast Merlot were destemmed and cold soaked for two days to enhance the extraction of color and flavor from the fruit. Only the freerun juice was selected for this wine, which was aged in contact with oak to impart notes of toast and pepper to the final blend.
