Classic Film Festival Merlot 2019

The TCM Classic Film Festival reunites film fans with the movies, memories, stars and glamor of the big screen. Raise a glass and celebrate the magic of Hollywood with an exclusive NEW release.

This limited-edition Merlot hails from Paso Robles, “one of the most dynamic wine regions in California” (Wine Spectator). Paso Robles has a warm, sunny climate that ripens grapes to perfection plus a long growing season, which gives the fruit plenty of time to develop complex, concentrated flavors. You’ll taste what that means in your glass.

Look forward to ripe plum and red berry aromas and flavors. The palate is plush and silky, with just a hint of mocha on the long, smooth finish. Kick off the evening with a glass—perhaps alongside beef, lamb or creamy vegetarian risottos—but save a little wine for movie time, too.

As luxe and velvety as any red carpet, this lovely California Merlot will make you feel like a star. Claim your share today.

Classic Movie Pairing: E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
The official Opening Night film of the 2022 TCM Classic Film Festival celebrates its 40th anniversary. It began as a highly personal project for director Steven Spielberg, who as a teenager had created an imaginary friend—an alien—to help him cope with his parents’ divorce. Helping to make this sci-fi classic a massive commercial success are the impressive cast of young actors, including Henry Thomas and Drew Barrymore, and the indelible musical score by John Williams. For the young-at-heart, the film pairs nicely with a velvety red wine.
