Exactly what you’d expect. Maybe even a little more structure leaning toward Cab, but this feels like a classic medium to high quality Napa Merlot. Friendly with food and pleasurable. Approachable. Would drink again.

Lovely bright red with yellow hue. Medium to full body. Pleasant aroma. Firm but smooth tannin. Less fruit than most napa, more towards the Bordeaux style. Balance fruits with graphite and coffee. Medium finish. produced by Jonathan Malthus, owner of château Teyssier in St-emillion.

Fantastic merlot from Beckstoffer vineyard in Carneros. Very similar to Behrens and Hitchcock merlot from the same region
