2014 offered excellent ripening conditions—perfect temperatures and just the right amount of light to allow the Merlot to ripen slowly. We were able to bring incredible fruit into the cellar with beautiful acidity that will maintain the freshness of this wine for many more years. The tannins are very soft and fine grained, demonstrating the texture and complexity of this wine and showcasing the delicate nature of Merlot. Enjoy this wine at release and for the next 5 to 10 years.
Critical Acclaim
RP91 The Wine Advocate
The Coombsville AVA has produced a 2014 Merlot for Merryvale that is 100% Merlot. Chocolaty coffee and espresso notes intermixed with black cherry and berry fruit are enticing. This is a plump, succulent, hedonistic style of Merlot to drink over the next decade. It is no shy wine at 14.9% alcohol, and the price is realistic at $55.
WE90 Wine Enthusiast
This 100% varietal wine from Truchard Vineyard is dark and inky, made in big, bold style. Cedar, pine and tart black-currant notes provide one side of its personality, as more richly concentrated chocolate and blackberry flavors give it oomph.
