Product Notes

Wente Vineyards Estate Grown Sandstone Merlot is a red wine crafted from the finest Merlot grapes, sourced from the Wente family estate. This wine boasts a deep ruby color and a medium-bodied structure that offers intense fruit notes of blackberry, blueberry, and plum on the palate. The Sandstone Merlot is aged in French oak barrels to achieve a refined and smooth finish with subtle hints of vanilla and spice. This wine is perfect for sipping on its own or paired with hearty meats and savory dishes. It’s a perfect example of the quality wines that come from one of California’s oldest and most respected wineries.

About the Winery

Wente Vineyards

Known to be California’s longest operational family-owned wine estate, Wente Vineyards came into existence in 1883. Carl H Wente acquired the ownership of 47 hectares in the Livermore Valley in California during this year. By 1936, Herman Wente, the second-generation Wente family member, supported the establishment of the Wine Institute of California.
