Perrone Monte Bello Vineyard Merlot

A standout Merlot with delicious flavors of cherry, anise, dust, plum and graphite. Beautiful structure.

Exceptional. Beautifully balance, if you got it hold for 5 years, open, and watch the fireworks... This kept getting better and better..

Nice 10 years of age with fresh, ripe dark fruit and seamless structure. Balanced with earthy minerality.

Amazing wine. Lots of fruit and spice. Cherry, currants, slice, fennel, earth.

Big for a merlot, very typical Ridge style

Serious pedigree and a serious wine. Definitely harkens Monte Bello with its balance and refinement

Very perfumed nose. Full body, very balanced and long finish. Lots of fruit on the palate, nice touch of oak and medium tannins. Still young. Popped and poured.

Amazingly deep and dark, with lots and lots of tanin and a good dose of oak too. The concentrated fruit reminds me of blueberries without sweetness. Could well have aged another five years and only improved.

Nice toasty aroma. Medium+ palate of red and dark fruit palate, with oak notes. Good balance with acidity, Medium+ to long finish. Popped and poured.

Fruuuuiiiit.
