Mt. Brave Merlot 2018 Size::6 Bottle Case herb-crusted sea bass or roastMade from 100% Merlot, the 2018 Merlot Mt. Veeder was aged for 22 months in oak, 80% new. Deep garnet purple colored, it rolls effortlessly out of the glass with notions of stewed plums, baked blackberries and sauted herbs plus hints of beef drippings, cloves and pencil lead. Full bodied, plush and decently generous, the finish delivers compelling black fruit layers with loads of freshness.
