2008 Cakebread Merlot Napa Valley
Winner of this year's 'Best Merlot' and a
Double Gold medal is our 2008 Merlot was named in this year's San
Francisco International Wine Competition. Over 4,100 wines from
1,200 wineries from over 29 countries were entered into this
prestigious competition.
Bright, sweet black cherry and plum
compote aromas, complemented by tea-leaf spice and oak vanillin
scents, introduce our lovely 2008 Napa Valley Merlot, which follows
through on the smooth, round palate with succulent, mouthfilling,
ripe cherry and plum flavors. Displaying a deep, expansive
mid-palate, fine underlying structure and a lingering, zesty finish
enlivened by black tea spice tones, this mellifluous Merlot is
delicious for current drinking, but will develop further complexity
with another 2-3 years of bottle age. Winery Notes
