Score 90/100 · Drink 2016-2026, Robert Parker, Dec 2016
The 2014 Merlot is the kind of Merlot that can get this excessively criticized and maligned grape back in the minds, hearts and palates of wine consumers. This is a beauty from the Spring Mountain District, a blend of 82% Merlot and 18% Cabernet Franc. A dense bluish/purple color with a big, sweet kiss of blueberries, black raspberries, a touch of cherry and licorice. It is complex, beautifully velvety, lush and exactly what Merlot should be. Impressive and long, this Merlot can be drunk now, or cellared for another ten years.
