Swanson Napa Valley Merlot

Swanson Napa Valley Merlot

According to Robert Parker - The Merlot exhibits a dense purple color, abundant cocoa, white chocolate, black cherry and plummy fruit, medium body, good depth and power, and an excellent finish.

According to Wine Spectator - Combines plushness and power. Deep black cherry aromas open to complex flavors of red currant, cedar and mocha, finishing with big but ripe tannins.

Tasting Notes:

Immediately inviting, the nose opens like a summer’s day, ripe fruit, red currant, strawberries and rose petals. On the palate the wine delivers crisp raspberry acidity alongside a succulent and dense mouth feel. Precise tannins give a refreshing lift to this well-structured Merlot. Built to be immediately assessable as well as rewarding medium cellaring (5-7 years) this good-natured wine will pair well with a wide variety of foods.

Blend: 79% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Petit Verdot.

Wine Spectator Rating: 90 Pts.

14.5% ABV.
