Napa Valley

Medium

Natural Cork

Sourced from Eakle Ranch in Pope Valley, nestled against the Vaca Mountain Range on its eastern flank, this cooler site stands out from the rest of Pope Valley. A very spicy and aromatic Merlot, it offers notes of oregano, rosemary, spiced plums, violets, and blueberry skin. Medium to full-bodied, it presents layers of spicy Mexican mocha, a hint of sage and dried mint, and a brightness to the fruit character that carries through to the long finish. This is a Merlot with density and weight, showing excellent tension and depth—definitely not one to be mistaken for a soft, mid-palate wine.
