Januik Winery was founded by Mike and Caroline Januik in 1999, the realization of a dream that took hold in 1980 when the couple sold their wine shop in Oregon so Mike could study winemaking at UC Davis. After graduation, the Januiks moved to Washington to be closer to family. In 1984, Mike worked his first vintage and quickly became a leading winemaker in the state's nascent wine scene. Utilizing his relationships with growers throughout the Columbia Valley, Mike acquires the best grapes the region has to offer that are then crafted into acclaimed wines of great finesse and balance.

The 2021 Merlot smolders up with a dark blend of black raspberries, cocoa and balsamic spice. This is silky-smooth and medium-bodied, showing depths of tart wild berry fruit. The 2021 tapers off with medium length and a pleasantly bitter twang, leaving hints of wild blueberry to slowly fade.

Tightly focused and a touch lean, with up-front flavors of currant, tobacco and spices that gather tension toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2031. 978 cases made.
