PnP. May develop in the glass but is already very full and delicious. A little pepper on the back end. Out classes the burgers we had it with but still complimented the beef well.

PnP. Consumed in a couple hours. Opened up with more depth and revealing notes of leather and deep red fruits and pepper. Still a little tight. I think this has a couple more years before it opens more naturally.

PnP. What’s difference a year and a half made. This wine is ready to roll. Way more what I expected from a petite sirah. Fruity, velvety and rich. Excellent with grilled burgers tonight.

Drank over two nights. Fruit forward with some pepper and spice mid palate. It was enjoyable and worthy of the under $30 price tag. I’d be disappointed if I paid retail in Napa.

The blend is not revealed on the bottle. Reminiscent of a warmer climate pinot even thought this tablenwine is from Oregon. Has a funk I just can’t shake.

Napa Valley more

We stayed alongside one of the Merus vineyards in a short-term rental apartment. it was a very small plot that created a lovely atmosphere with the patio. Tasting;
Opened on our 26th Anniversary. Decanted for sediment. was really nice. multiple layers of cherry, oak, tobacco, leather. Was spectacular with a ribeye, but would be great to just enjoy on all its own merit, as well.
