An intense style, with a firm and juicy thread of Meyer lemon and Asian pear flavors that are crunchy and mouthwatering, balanced by fresh ginger, Honeycrisp apple, lime zest and citrus blossoms, along with notes of lemongrass and lemon verbena. Really sings on the long finish. Drink now.

Pure and succulent, with fleshy peach, apricot and melon notes highlighted by vibrant acidity. Accents of apple pastry, pineapple and Himalayan sea salt linger, as do lemon verbena and sweetgrass aromatics. Drink now.

An expressive, well-built, medium-bodied wine with a wonderful range of aromas, showing wild raspberries and blackberries, plums, moss and rose petals, as well as violets, pine forest floor and iron. The structured palate has a pleasing balance of fresh acidity and firm tannins. Drink or hold.

Aromas of mangoes, green pears, papaya and seaweed. A plush, mouthwatering, full-bodied wine with bright, juicy acidity and just a hint of sweetness. Versatile and pleasurable. Drink now.

This is one of the more robust wines in the Merry Edwards Winery line-up that I tasted during my January 2026 visit. It shows impressive density and power, with grippy apple-skin tannins that never overwhelm. Those tannins frame vibrant red-berried fruit, savoury spice, dusty wild-herb notes, and lifted rose-petal aromatics. Despite its structure and depth, the wine retains excellent tension, energy, and drive, carrying confidently through the finish.
