Winemaker Notes: From the first area within Napa Valley appellation to be declared a separate viticultural area (AVA) this Reserve Merlot encompasses a clove, cinnamon stick, and sweet spice aromas from the barrels which integrates well with the sweet black plum, blackberry, light orange rind, cocoa and minty characteristics from the grapes.

Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Merlot.
