2007 Merlot
  • Appellation: Napa Valley
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc,
    Amuse Bouche (Napa, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Heidi Peterson Barrett
  • The 2007 harvest was characterized by its split personality. After a moderate summer, a burst of heat in early September led a number of wineries to pick earlier than usual. However, the harvest stalled due to a dramatic cooling off period in mid September. When it resumed later in the month, our vineyards clearly had benefited from the extended hang time. The later harvest allowed an optimal ripening period for our Merlot and Cabernet Franc blocks, which we picked just before heavy rainfall str... ...read more

    2006 Roberta's Reserve
  • Appellation: Yountville
  • Merlot Blend
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc,
    Kapcsandy Family Winery (Yountville, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Denis Malbec
  • The 2006 Roberta's Reserve State Lane Vineyard is a blend of 94% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc. There are only 250 cases of this cuvee, which exhibits chocolate, espresso roast, licorice, roasted herb, black currant, mocha, and wild mountain berry fruit notes. Vibrant acidity, medium to full body, and good freshness are surprising for a Napa-based wine, but the winemaking team is undoubtedly seeking freshness and vibrancy. This 2006 should drink well for 12-15 years - 94 point - Robert Parker

    2004 Merlot
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,
    Kestrel Vintners (Prosser, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Flint Nelson
  • Our 2004 selection of Merlot is an exceptionally beautiful creature. The color is inky crimson-purple. In the aroma and on the palate there are multiple layers of ripe black cherry, blackberry, black raspberry, dried blueberry, plum, fig and fresh red raspberry. The wine has a luscious quality about it, it is full bodied, complex, and boasts a lingering finish. It will most certainly leave you wanting more.

    2005 Columbia Valley Merlot
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc,
    Quilceda Creek (Snohomish, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Paul Golitzin
  • We are also very partial to our 2005 Columbia Valley Merlot. It is an excellent right-bank Bordeaux styled wine (86% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc) that reflects the personality of the vintage. Hints of lavender, smoky meat, Asian spices, and minerals enhance the black and cherry fruit. Big and seamless, this wonderfully balanced wine should mature around 2011 and age gracefully for 20 years or longer.

    Merlot "The Devon Vineyard"
  • Appellation: Malibu-Newton Canyon
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,
    Rosenthal - The Malibu Estate / Surfrider (Malibu, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Christian Roguenant
  • Low-yield hillside fruit contributes to a richness and complexity not seen in “standard” Merlots. A full yet supple wine, with hints of black cherry, plum, mocha, exotic spices, and a kiss of oak. Bright berry fruit, elegant mid-palate, and a lingering finish, with refined, well-integrated tannins.

    Annadel Wines (St. Helena, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Clean, pure, and serious, the wine is rounded out by 50% tight-grain new French Oak from a selection of coopers and barrel aged for 17 months. Aromatically, black tea, sage, citrus blossom, confiture cerises, brioche, honeysuckle, and allspice are evident. On the palate, an expansive entry evolves to a round and balanced texture with flavors on the border between the red and black fruit spectrums exhibiting black cherry, red currants, and plum notes. The finish is creamy and clean at the same ti... ...read more

  • Appellation: Paso Robles
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,
    River Star Vineyards (San Miguel, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • The 2002 vintage provided excellent conditions for fully ripening our fruit. Warm late season temperatures ensured deep pigmentation and supple tannins in the grape skins. A traditional light crushing followed by tank fermentation at moderately warm temperatures and twice-daily pumpovers allowed full extraction of flavor and color components. Barreled immediately following the pressing of the must, this Merlot resided in a combination of French and American Oak for a period of a year and a half.... ...read more
