Ken Deis Napa Valley Merlot 2013
About the wine
Approachable and lush Merlot from a Founding Father of Napa Valley
- A luxurious Rutherford Merlot that just drips with dark fruit and tantalises your palate for days and days with a dangerously smooth finish. This is what Napa is all about.
- Ken uses the best vineyards, folks he met when he was working at Joseph Phelps and Flora Springs. The fruit is pristine. And then he brings it into the winery and gives it the royal treatment. Careful hand sort, small batch fermentation, and all the other bells and whistles.
- We held on to this wine for longer than we usually do, so that it would be perfect to drink when it hit your kitchen table, approachable and lush compared to a lot of 2013 Napa wines.
