Beringer Vineyards
Estate Bottled Bancroft Ranch Vineyard Merlot
Howell Mountain, Napa Valley, California, USA
So interesting! Was CVed 2/5/17 but now it drinks as a very balanced and terrific aged Merlot. Indeed there’s a sense of lift on the palate at first. Beautiful nose and long finish and the jammy notes don’t stick out.

Dec 29th, 2021Surprisingly good. Dad had two bottles of these in the cellar and we drank this one yesterday knowing that it probably won't last long. Peaked after 45 minutes or so. Fades after that.

May 16th, 2017Outstanding. Side by side with the '96 Dominus and holding its own. This is world class merlot. With 10+years these are Dead ringer for St. Emilion premiere grand crus.
