Lush, smooth, and irresistibly approachable, Bliss Vineyards Merlot is a celebration of ripe red fruit. Grown in the heart of Mendocino County, this Merlot opens with inviting aromas of coffee, tobacco leaf, dark plums. On the palate, it’s a velvety blend of soft tannins and rich, juicy layers of blackberry and cocoa, finishing with a hint of oak spice and black licorice. Whether paired with a succulent meal or savored solo, it’s the kind of wine that makes any moment a little more blissful.

Refined yet vibrant, Single Lot 09 Chardonnay is a beautifully crafted expression of California’s coastal charm. This limited-lot wine delivers bright citrus and orchard fruit on the nose balanced by subtle notes of toasted almond and vanilla from gentle oak aging. On the palate, it’s crisp and layered, with a creamy texture and refreshing acidity that lead to a clean, lingering finish. Sophisticated but easygoing, it’s perfect for those who appreciate nuance in every sip.
