A blend of 96.4% Merlot, 3.3% Cabernet Sauvignon, .1% Cabernet Franc, .1% Petit Verdot and .1% Malbec. Wonderful plum, spice, currant and wild berry flavors. The soft tannins of this Bordeaux varietal carry these aromas and flavors to a long lingering finish — one that beckons for another sip, or better...a glass! "The cherry, mocha, and chocolate-scented 2006 Vintner’s Reserve Merlot (nearly 100% estate-grown Merlot fruit) is also quite good. Both of these reds possess 2-3 years of longevity." - Rated 87, Robert Parker "Here’s a supple, polished Merlot that shows lots of North Coast class. It’s fully dry, with rich, smooth tannins and complex flavors of black currants, cedar and herbs. Good buy for under $20. — S.H. (7/1/2009)" - Rated 87, Wine Enthusiast |
