For six generations, the Herzog family produced award winning, quality wines in their native Czechoslovakia. Since moving to the United States in 1948, that tradition has continued under the seventh and eighth generations, with a commitment to excellence undiminished by time.

This Alexander Valley Special Reserve Merlot displays notes of cranbenry, ripe strawberry, blueberry and dusty loam. Hints of caramel and toffee combine with fine, elegant tannins in a long and satisfying finish.

This wine is wonderful with filet mignon, roasted chicken, or pasta dishes with red sauce. To retain its character only light filtration occurred and therefore sediment may appear as it ages.
