Merryvale Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Bright, fresh and vibrant while rooted with a savory core, this is pure Napa in a glass. Aromas of leather, tobacco, cassis, and dried herbs dance with savory spices and blue fruits. The wine unfolds in layers, showcasing a finesse that belies its power. Medium-bodied with bright acidity that perfectly complements the fine grain tannins.
93 Points – Wine Enthusiast
Deep, dark fruit flavors, milk chocolate and mint join in to give this rich and full-bodied wine a mouthfilling presence. Velvety tannins coat the palate and support the delicious, almost-sweet fruit and spice flavors. It contains 17% Cabernet Franc and small amounts of Petit Verdot and Malbec.
93 Points – Wine Spectator
This is textbook Napa Cabernet — ripe, forthright and well-defined, with cassis, bitter plum and blackberry fruit driving through over a racy graphite hint and lively savory notes. Reveals an alder toast accent on the finish. Rock-solid.
92 Points – James Suckling
Blackberry, walnut and bark on the nose with dried flowers and sandalwood. Its full-bodied with lots of chewy tannins and flavorful fruit. Juicy, savory finish.
