TheGrgich Hills Estate Napa Valley Merlotis a very approachable, lush and rich Merlot, from an exceptional vintage that will instantly appeal to those who prefer Cabs for their rich and ripe fruit and texture. A great earthy nose with red and black fruit that greets you and upon your first sip and lingers long into the finish.
This smooth and gulpable wine "? with just a splash of brick hue in its color "? is soothing with its lingering finish. While the essence of dark, dried fruit, (in its nose), enchants one right away; there is an unexpected hint of vanilla in this wine, as the oils come to the surface and esters open up. Balance is brought beautifully, to this unusually sturdy Merlot, which drinks more like a Meritage or Cabernet. This delightful pick would hold up well to succulent lamb chops, and too, pair glowingly with a simple plate of cheese. Unmistakably easy to drink, this wine is a winner!
