Orin Swift – Advice from John

Orin Swift Advice From John is a rich, expressive California Merlot made for anyone who appreciates a red wine with both personality and polish. Aromas of blackberry pie, black plum, sage, and lilac lead into generous dark-fruit flavors accented by fennel, licorice, espresso, and savory spice.

The texture is plush and concentrated, but soft tannins make it immediately approachable. It’s an impressive choice for Merlot drinkers—and a persuasive bottle for anyone who thinks they don’t like Merlot.

Pair it with burgers, braised beef, roasted mushrooms, barbecue, aged cheddar, or a hearty flatbread.
