Marilyn Merlot 2017

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Dark ruby/purple in color with a wide reddish rim.

Beautiful nose of blueberries, black plums, black cherries, cedar, licorice, light earth, chocolates, black pepper and black tea.

Full bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate and very fruity with cooked plums, currants, cherries, light earth, cola, chocolates, licorice, cedar, spices, light bitter herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 7-year-old Napa Merlot is drinking beautifully now. Spicy and entertaining. Elegant and easy drinking. Fruit forward and very chocolatey.

Needed some time to open up. I gave it 90 minutes in a decanter, and really enjoyed the nose, once it opened up.

Peaking now and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

Nicely balanced, rich and extracted. Smooth and plush. Well balanced and complex. Good by itself as a sipping wine.

A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.

14.4% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$65.

I haven’t had much experience with other producers of individual Barbaresco Cuvées apart from the Produttori.

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2021

Delectable Wine
9.4

The 2021 Barbaresco is impressive. Intensely aromatic and explosive, the straight Barbaresco shows why 2021 is such a pedigreed vintage. Spice, lavender, sage and mint meld into a core of blue/purplish fruit. A gorgeous, overachieving wine, the 2021 just needs time in bottle. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2024)

Barbera d'Alba 2021

Again an excellent showing in QPR. Light on it’s feet (pinot noir like), animalistic, pure. In Italian we say: “una Barbera in purezza” — 5 months ago
