Napa Valley Merlot

I always listen to the sommelier, and usually order what they recommend. This was one of those times, and we couldn’t be happier. A monster Merlot, 14.9% ABV, but smooth as silk. Delightful with our prime rib. Here we are in the middle of the Caribbean on the last night of a cruise, enjoying ourselves at a wonderful restaurant, the Cosmopolitan. — 2 months ago

1.5 hour decant(decent chunky/cloudy sediment). A delightful deep murky dark garnet color with slight bricking. On the nose: Nice muted nose of forest floor, cigar, strawberry, burnt coffee, floral, start of that sweet aged perfume. Taste: smooth, fresh, medium body wine with big cassis, earthy, minerals, plum, crushed rocks, and spiced tobacco medium plus finish.....still a little austere and thin on the end with some unresolved tannins. Will it come together with more time?

Confession: these notes may not be reliable......bought a case of this off vintage wine.....going to like it whether I did or not — 3 years ago

@Ron R 😅👍going to put in back of cellar for another 5 years...If not much improvement by then, may have to turn to the dark side and make a pact with the devil 👹😱 for the remainder of my bottles.

A delightful CDP! Full-bodied but not overpowering. Smokey and tangy with a lot of floral notes. Raspberries, kirsch, blackberries, with a satisfying finish. Drinking exceptionally well now. — 3 months ago

Toasty, oaky, delightful with a creamy mouth feel. Pear, apple, and typical Moet deliciousness.

Landed a new job tonight and having a tiny little celebration with my mom and my dog. ☺️ — 3 years ago

Floral with mature dark fruit in the nose... a bit of spice on the palate with plenty of fruit forward. It is a delightful wine to enjoy with earthy dishes, especially mushrooms.
Drink it now as it is at its peak! — 3 years ago
