This first release of the 2006 vintage is this lovely, ageworthy Merlot which tells a robust story in wine. It’s a delicious tale, full of all the rich details of the vine’s year in the sun (and wind and fog). And this, like all our estate wines, is a singular expression of the meticulous care we put into every vine and bottle. 4 years from vine to table. 1 year for the crop to ripen in the vineyard. 2 years for the young wine to age in barrel. 1 year maturing in bottle prior to release. The result: Classic, Mt. Veeder Merlot. Earthy, smoky, sweet, lush, racy, dusty, spiced. It’s a wine that requires time to get to know. I suggest opening a bottle soon for reference (and enjoyment), and then laying down your remaining supply for a few years. The story will only get more and more intriguing with each reading. Sante! Peter Rubissow
Note: We dropped the price on our Merlot from last year's vintage.
