      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: From 100% Pommard clone vines, the 2017 Pinot Noir Flax Vineyard is medium ruby-purple in color and coiled on the nose, slowly giving way to raspberries, strawberries and red cherries with accents of aniseed, amaro, lilac and tangerine. It’s medium-bodied and silky with bitters-laced berry fruits, framed by lightly chalky tannins and finishing very long and fresh. This is approachable now but merits a bit more time in bottle.
      • Wine Enthusiast: From a Middle Reach site along Westside Road, this robust, earthy wine is strong in firm tannin and overall structure. Earthy and bright in underlying acidity, it dazzles in dark, rich flavors of strawberry, blueberry and dried herb, a whiff of white pepper lurking. A finishing touch of dark chocolate leaves one wanting more.

      Producer Information

      Merry Edwards Winery is a Californian estate based in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County. It specializes in varietal wines made from Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Merry Edwards started her winemaking career in 1974 at Mount Eden Vineyards in the Santa Cruz Mountains. In 1975, she took cuttings from a selection of Mount Eden Vineyards' Pinot Noir vines and sent them to University of California, Davis. This selection subsequently became known as UCD clone 37, or the "Merry Edwards selection". Edwards helped establish Matanzas Creek in 1977, and founded her own winery in 1997. The first vineyard, the 8 hectare (20 acre) Meredith Estate, was planted to Pinot Noir in 1998, and a second site, Coopersmith Vineyard, was established in 2001. Merry Edwards has since added several long-term leases to the portfolio, and in 2010, the estate was farming a total of 22ha (54 acres) of Pinot Noir. Merry Edwards added Sauvignon Blanc plantings to the estate vineyard portfolio in 2014 with a new property in Forestville on the lower slopes of the Meredith Estate. Merry Edwards produces an extensive collection of vineyard-designated Pinot Noir wines with Sauvingon Blanc and Chardonnay also featuring heavily.
