Napa Valley Merlot

Napa Valley Merlot Wine Details
Price: $33.00 per bottle

Description: This Napa Valley Merlot is blended with 20% Cabernet Sauvignon from carefully farmed hillside vineyards. On the nose, it reveals a range of aromas, including black currant, spice, tobacco and a Bordeaux-like earthiness. The ripe fruit flavors it shows on entry are jammy and rich and give way on the mid-palate to more complex flavors of spicy black and stone fruit, baked cherries and hints of wild game and mushrooms. Aromatically, the wine continues to open up in the glass to reveal layers of spiced plum, cedar and cigar box, characteristics imparted by the healthy percentage of cabernet sauvignon in the blend. Supple tannins and firm acidity provide structure and add a fine textural component to this merlot’s long finish.
