Marilyn Meritage 2014
Description
The dark purple hues and the depth of aromas in this wine immediately speak of the strength of the 2014 harvest. In the nose, one is attracted by smells of blackberries, spice, and pleasing earthy aromas. The lush, round entry on the palate leading to a well structured, full mouthfeel, ending with a long pleasing finish. Added notes of black cherry, ripe plums and nicely integrated oak make this Meritage a wine that can be enjoyed now but will reward the patient consumer with the added complexity that will be gained with years of aging. The Vineyards: The grapes all come from the Napa Valley. For the Merlot we are lucky enough in the Oakville Appellation. This appelation is an excellent growing region for Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. This vineyard produces some of the most avorful and dynamic Merlot we’ve tasted.

Try The Vintage: “Another early and excellent quality year”, is how the 2014 growing season, is being described. Heavy rains early on gave the vines a much need drink as they deep avor.
