... Read more
Blend: 90% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon With a full two years bottle aging before release, 2002 Merlot Carneros is already developed into a stylish wine: dark plummy fruit, subtle notes of baking spices and anise, and a broad-but-firm backbone. This wine shows off 2002's forward, juicy flesh, but will develop complexity over many years. If you appreciate great wines of Bordeaux's Right Bank but love explosion of Napa Valley fruit, you will find this Carneros Reserve bottling just that magical combination. Our Reserve bottling of Merlot is distinguished from its Napa Valley brother in ways that may not be obvious from their designations. Instead of simply saving biggest wines for Reserve, each bottling has its own virtues, with wine's intended style in mind. Reserve is designed to emphasize non-fruit complexity of variety, a wine that also will develop gracefully with age. So we tend to use vineyard lots with more total tannin, greater volume and texture of m Interna

To make a Merlot that could compete with great Merlot-based
... Read more
To make a Merlot that could compete with great Merlot-based wines of right bank of Bordeaux, we began by sourcing fruit grown primarily in alluvial soils, those with high water drainage and little topsoil. This type of soil produces intense fruit that translates into aromatic and complex wines. Our Napa Valley Merlot is a blend of several individual vineyard lots. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and occasionally Petit Verdot make up final blend. We keep each individual vineyard lot separate through fermentation and barrel-aging process. After roughly 16 months in oak, various lots are evaluated and blended, then put back in barrel to marry for an additional two months. bright fruit and forward nature of our Napa Valley Merlot pairs well with grilled meats and wild game, wild berry sauces, hearty pasta dishes and Pacific Northwest salmon. Our Napa Valley Merlot is a complex and ageable expression of varietal, highlighting rich diversity of Napa Valley appellation. A prod Con

This wine is from United States, California region, Napa County sub-region and Oakville appellation. Paradigm Winery, located in the Oakville appellation of Napa Valley, hand crafts small quantities of estate bottled red wine. Marilyn and Ren Harris founded Paradigm Vineyards in 1976. Both of the owner’s roots are entrenched in the Napa Valley - with Marilyn’s family dating back to 1890 (her grandparents actually came to Napa from Italy to grow grapes) and Ren’s family first immigrated to California in 1769. The renowned Heidi Peterson Barrett has been their winemaker since day one! Heidi’s father actually helped design their small but very functional winery. About thirty percent of the grape production at Paradigm is used by the winery and the balance is sold to other high end wineries including Groth, Nickel & Nickel and Duckhorn. The vineyard is now planted to 7 blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon totaling 37 acres, 3 blocks of Merlot totaling 12 acres, 4 acres of Cabernet Franc, 1 acre of Zinfandel and 1 acre of Petite Verdot. To give you an idea of the type of terroir in this area, nearby vineyards include Harlan, Martha's Vineyard, Dominus, an Opus Vineyard, and a Quintessa Vineyard. Throughout their ownership of Paradigm, Ren and Marilyn have been advocates for the Oakville appellation, environmental stewardship and they farm sustainably.. (90% Merlot/6% Cabernet Sauvignon/2% Cabernet Franc/2% Petit Verdot). Oak is used as an accent for the fruitcomponent.. Ripe black plum and red cherry aromas. Sweet dense ripe flavors flow across the mid-palate. Bright,pure flavor, a fat round middle with good length and intensity. MERLOT Wine California Still Wine

This wine displays all of benefits of slow, even ripening during a mild growing season. Though there is fullness and a lush character to this Merlot, there is also restraint and elegance. Promising aromas of cherry, red plum, raspberry, and dried herbs lead to a clean fresh entry with impeccably balanced acidity suporting intense red fruit flavors of cranberry, plum and raspberry. Round, supple tannins provide an enticing framework for flavors and contribute to a lingering finish.

In fact, fruit from our estate vineyards makes a significant contribution to our Napa Valley Merlot. Then, to complement our estate fruit's distinctive qualities of flavor and structure, we turn to independent growers whose vineyards meet our rigorous farming standards.. Over 55% of this blend is composed of estate fruit. We get much of this fruit from our ARCADIA VINEYARD, which contributes structure as well as a core of red berry and plum characters with elements of spice. Then we layer in fruit from B.R.V., our estate vineyard in the Oak Knoll District, providing rounder, brighter fruit notes and a tobacco leaf character. To augment the supple character of the Merlot, we added a small but important percent of Cabernet Sauvignon to build weight and intensity.

2008 Swanson Oakville Merlot is a charming wine, reminiscent more of Right Bank of Bordeaux than Napa Valley. nose offers black cherry, plum, and dried red cherry with notes of well-integrated sweet oak and mocha. Firm, ripe tannins characteristic of our Oakville Estate vineyard fill palate nicely. In mouth look for raspberry, black cherry, and red licorice. Petite Verdot contributes a graceful top note of verve and spice. Velvet-smooth and long on finish. Should continue to improve in bottle with optimum drinkability continuing through 2017.

This wine is wonderfully aromatic with intense fruit notes of cherry, pomegranate, plum and strawberry, laced with spicy accents of vanilla, white pepper, and cinnamon. The aromas carry over to the palate, with an additional touch of milk chocolate. Subtle tannins gently grip the palate of this gracefully structured wine. A versatile wine with holiday fare, from herb-stuffed turkey to crown roast of pork with cornbread stuffing. Flooding kicked off the New Year in Napa Valley, which made for great news headlines, but caused no damage to dormant vines. Cool, wet weather delayed bud break by a few weeks, but by early June, the sun came out and vines began to bloom and set fruit. In mid-July, a record-setting heat wave lasted about ten days, which helped the vines catch up to a “normala place in the typical growing season. Seasonal and somewhat cooler weather returned in August, with a mild weather pattern continuing throughout the fall that allowed for moderately paced, deliberate ripening and a long harvest period.
