MERLOT 2015 Napa Valley
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer CA' MOMI
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Very spicy, cedary, baked cherry-plum nose with lots of clove notes. Dry, medium, quite well structured, harmonious, very spicy, solid, intense, cherry-plum flavours with a lingering, sandalwood, clove-driven finish. Where did all the clove notes come from? Does not seem to reflect the Napa Merlot typicity that I am familiar with. Has 13.5% alcohol and 7 g/L residual sugar. Not at all up to the recommended 2014 (**/**+) released on October 29, 2016 at $23.95. CSPC 470187

This 2015 Merlot is loaded with rich, smoky black fruit, plum, cocoa and charred wood aromas and flavours. This has excellent structure, sweet tannins and a lingering smoky note on the finish.
