2015 Merus Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

Tasting Notes

…So delicious aromatically, so dense and insanely opaque with opulently deep violet hues matching impressively with dark blue and black berries alongside fresh turned earth and minerals, dark soils and tobacco leaf…fresh ground Turkish Coffee and dusty Cocoa ending with subtle notes of Vanilla and Cedar-

…This wildly inspirational 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon from Coombsville keeps outperforming year after year with powerful and firm tannins, dark Berries with focus and precision- Please Decant this Deep and Concentrated Cab for at least an hour - Enjoy!

2015 Vintage

This 2015 Merus is a singularly delicious bottle of wine. Deep dark fruit aromas lure you into the glass.
ere’s a hint of something akin to dark chocolate and cocoa before it opens up to reveal classic black currant
and berry syrup aromas. e tannin, acid, and alcohol are in such balance that wine feels sweet, though it is
bone dry. A hint of vanilla imparted by the French oak aging lingers on the nish. Decant for one hour to
bring forth maximum aromatics and complexity.
 

Did you know-? …The grape's true origins discovered in 1996 with the use of DNA typing, which determined that Cabernet Sauvignon was the offspring of Cabernet franc and Sauvignon blanc and was most likely a chance crossing that occurred in the 17th century.
