This Merlot is exceptional. It has beartiful texture,depth and roundness with just enough tannin. Harris Vineyard, just north of Yountville provides the fruit. This is the same vineyard that produces the grapes for Paradigm. If you don't usually like merlot, you will be surprised by this wine.

Beau Terre Vineyard 

$33.99  

A perfume of preserved sweet cherry, baked plum and creamy oak carries over to a lush, round mouthful of juicy black fruit. Delicious from start to finish with the big ripe fruit you expect from Napa Valley reds, fine acidity to keep things focused and long vanilla infused finish that keeps you coming back for more. Well suited to a wide variety of foods, try it with Duck Breast over the coals, beef filet or even grilled wild Salmon steaks with a rich red wine reduction.

Known for their french style winemaking, Sinskey makes a great Merlot. The wine spent eighteen months in one-third new French oak barrels before bottling in the spring of 2006. Ten percent Cabernet Sauvignon plays a supporting role, adding structure. Two hundred and sixty-two barrels were produced.

“This Merlot comes with big scoops of red and black fruit aromas and flavors. I get fresh plums, sweet black cherries, currants, red licorice, a little pepper, and pleasing doses of fragrant earth, smoke, and minerality.” – Elias Fernandez
