Page Mill Winery Merlot is a dry, American red wine from California, known for its fruit-forward profile with notes of black cherry, plum, and sometimes herbaceous or spicy hints like thyme, often with a smooth, medium body and soft tannins. It's produced by Page Mill Winery, which is now based in Livermore Valley, and is made from grapes sourced from various California regions, including Santa Cruz County. The wine is typically aged in oak, giving it depth and structure, and pairs well with lamb, pork, and strong cheeses.
