Sipping Fine Wine

8.9

A blend of 81% Cab Sauv, 11% Petite Sirah & 8% Merlot, deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits and herb spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with notes of licorice and vanilla. Rustic tight tannins, lively acidity, medium+ finish ending with vanilla and cedar notes. — 5 years ago

Pulled this out of the cellar. Shockingly good. I should buy more Merryvale. Beautiful smooth delicious cab. Wonderful from beginning to end. It is what a cab is supposed to be. — 10 years ago

Deep ruby, almost purple, hue. Ripe purple fruit, such as blackberries, black currant, fig jam, and plum sauce, and tobacco, cocoa, bell pepper, sage, smoked meat, cedar, and delicate baking spices. Velveteen on the palate with soft tannins and a long finish. Vintage 2016. 14.5% ABV. #merryvale #merryvalevineyards #coombsvillenapa #merlot #merlotday #merlot #napavalley #napavalleywine #napawine — 6 years ago

Solid aromas of dark, jammy fruits with strong hint of leathery oak. It is one of those wines that you enjoy sniffing over and over without taking a sip. The first sip is a mouthful of sweet ripeness. This wine can stand on its own, enjoyable without food — 7 years ago

Oh my. Deep dark fruit smoke, cedar on the nose. Massive structure, deep tannins and long finish. Massive full mouth feel. Big sexy wine. Chairman’s Reserve. These are perfect for the night. — 8 years ago

This wine is good, but at this price point good is not good enough. I feel like their reds are much better, but am never really satisfied with their whites. When Beringer PR and Merryvale are considerably better chards at half the price, we have a problem. I hate being this critical, but it is what it is. — 9 years ago
