Van Alyea Ranch grapes receive Best of Class- San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition

http://winejudging.com/medal_winners_2012/445.htm

Year in and year out this Merlot is simply some of the best in the state. The Merlot from the Ranch always is very well structured. I have harvested this as high as 27 ( during the heat spell in 2005) and have never had to adjust the ph as it retains the acidity even at higher brix.

If any wineries are interested in purchasing Merlot.
