Grgich Hills Estate

Napa Valley Merlot 2012

I had the pleasure of interviewing Ivo Jeramaz on my last visit to Napa Valley. He's the nephew of winemaking legend, Mike Grgich and has taken the lead in much of the wineries day-to-day operations along with Mike's daughter, Violet. Ivo is a quiet and thoughtful in his speech—and his wines seem to reflect this. The 2012 Merlot is carmine-hued, and is more transparent than most Merlot I've encountered from Napa Valley. It possesses a kind of quiet restraint and lovely finesse with nuanced aromas of red currant, pie cherries, dried herbs and underbrush intertwining fine tannins a tart acidity. 14.0% ABV | Sample

This has come along very well since my 1st bottle, over a year ago. The acidity is completely integrated now, and the fruit has fleshed out nicely. Delicious cherry and red currant, warm spice notes (cardamom?), and a long, bright finish. Great tonight with Moroccan chicken. As usual with Mike's wines, I should've bought more. — 10 years ago
