Duckhorn 2013 Rector Creek Vineyard Merlot (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Rector Creek Vineyard
Variety: Merlot California
Winery: Duckhorn / Napa Valley

A full-bodied expression of the variety, blended with 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, this soft, rounded wine is dense in blueberry and currant, with a complexity of leather, pencil and soy. A pinpoint of reduction on the finish gives it a tinge of bitterness.
