Sure, this varietal has been the whipping boy for the past several years, but when an incredible Merlot like this comes along, you’ve simply got to put prejudice aside and drink this delicious wine! Dr. Thomas Kenefick fell in love with wine country some 25 years ago and subsequently bought a 125-acre property at the foothills of the Palisade Mountains in Calistoga. Initially, he nursed the vineyard to health and sold grapes to several notable Napa Valley producers including Arietta, Buccella, Etude, Lewis, Phelps, T-Vine and Plumjack's new Cade winery. In 2002 he started bottling wine under his own label.
Intricate aromatics with a rich structure, showcasing creme brulee notes and dark berry preserve. The 2021 Merlot shows a very complex yet intricate aromatic profile of dried raspberry intertwining with plum notes, floral perfumes, and a subtle pie crust toast notes underly the fruit. The palate is just rich enough with structure, creme brulee notes and dark berry preserve to provide an excellent middle and finish on every sip.
