Merryvale 2003 Beckstoffer Vineyard Vineyard X Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Merryvale 2003 "Beckstoffer-Las Amigas Vineyard" Carneros Merlot
Cabernet - 92 Points Wine Enthusiast - So rich, so opulent in primary fruit extract and new oak that it just demands time in the bottle to calm down. Explodes in cassis flavors spiced up with sweet, cherry oak, and the tannins are fresh, young and vibrant, the kind that will usher this wine through a long lifetime. Best 2007-2012, or decant to let it breathe.
Merlot - 91 points Wine Enthusiast - This is an enormously complex and appealing Merlot thatÕs offering its best fruit now and for the next three or four years. ItÕs fresh and lively in oak-enhanced blackberry jam, cassis, blueberry, licorice, mushu plum sauce and coffee flavors that last for a full minute into the finish. Shows the elegant balance and finesse of a great Napa red.
