Spellbound Merlot is approachable, with deep flavors of ripe berry and balanced American oak. This wine was created to demonstrate the dark yet playful profile of Merlot with its soft tannins and rich aromatics of mixed berry pie, cocoa, cigar box and decadent leather.

Everyone knows the warm sun nurtures plants, bringing grapevines to full maturity. But since ancient times, farmers have also depended on the moon, ruler of the tides, whose gravitational force pulls water up from the soil, supporting vines during the cool nights that maintain beautiful balance in wine grapes. The founding partners of Spellbound chose the name and label imagery to suggest the ever-present magical, mystical force of the moon. Spellbound first made its mark with one of the first varietals to be grown in California, Petite Sirah. This award-winning wine has earned 90 points from The Wine Advocate across multiple vintages. The portfolio also includes a core lineup of Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Rosé, all crafted with grapes from established and emerging regions throughout California, where warm sun and cool, moonlit nights result in expressive, approachable, balanced wines. These wines are true to their roots, expressing ripe varietal character with a style that elevates every occasion - from special events to everyday meals around the family table. Budget-savvy wine shoppers, will appreciate Spellbound for its everyday affordability, consistent quality and fruit-driven wine profile. With an everyday price below $15, Spellbound ranks in one of the fastest growing category segments appealing to a broad range of wine consumers and offers an attractive by-the-glass price below $10 for restaurants and wine bars.
