2004 Merlot

2004 Merlot Wine Details
Price: $35.00 per bottle

Description: "O" Merlot is handcrafted from grapes grown in our vineyard in the Oak Knoll district of Napa Valley. A beautiful deep ruby color is the first indication of the depth of the wine. The aroma/flavors include blackberry, plum, and cherry liqueur with hints of leather and herb (as a positive for complexity), follow through with shadings of coffee and bakers chocolate finishing with sweet toasty oak. The flavors layer nicely slowly revealing all of the subtleties. This vintage of our estate Merlot can be enjoyed immediately for it’s freshness and intensity, but will only improve with further bottle age through at least 2015. Winner of Gold Medal - Orange County Fair Wine
