 The Grapes:
The Merlot grapes that we used to make the wine were grown at a
vineyard located in as area known as the Estrella Triangle which is in
the heart of the Paso Robles appellation. The vineyard is sustainably
farmed and is 16 years of age. The vineyard is trained on a bi-lateral
cordon with VSP trellis. Harvest was on September 22, 2016.

The Vintage:
During the growing season the Paso Robles AVA is typically sunny with
warm daytime temperatures. The temperatures drop nicely at night
and this oers the opportunity for great wine grape production. We
enjoyed a nice length of hang time for the fruit. This rewarded us with
one of our nest Norma Jeane Merlots to date.

Winemaker Notes:
One is immediately struck with the rich, deep, garnet color of the
2016 Merlot. There is nice intensity of aromas with fresh red raspberries,
plums and hints of orange blossoms, orange zest and sage. The
avors mimic the aromas with a rich medium body and well-balanced
on the palate with a pleasing clean nish.

The Photograh:
Marilyn ashes her All-American smile while posing in a stripe bathing
suit with a beach towel around her hair in 1949. Johnny Hyde fell
head over heels in love with Marilyn but this was a one sided love aair.
But Johnny was responsible for making her a star. By the end of 1950,
Marilyn had six lms in release due to Johnny’s eorts.
