2007 Whitehall Lane Napa Valley Merlot ENLARGE

2007 Whitehall Lane Napa Valley Merlot 750ml

The aromas are somewhat exotic, melding spicy aromas with dark cherry and blackberry notes and hi-lighted by hints of violet and lavender. The flavors are similar to the aromas with sandalwood and vanilla just beginning to give ground to the greater fruit below. It finishes long and silky, revealing its cherry core in the delicious finish.

WINE SPECTATOR RATING: 90

WINE SPECTATOR REVIEW: Sleek and classy, with black cherry and delicate toasty oak aromas that lead to supple, layered flavors of red currant, mocha and spice. Drink now through 2015.

WINE ENTHUSIAST RATING: 90

WINE ENTHUSIAST REVIEW: Super-delicious, a soft, luscious wine whose cherry, raspberry and cocoa flavors are wrapped into velvety tannins. Made even richer by the vanilla and toasty caramel of oak barrels. Defines ready-to-drink Napa Valley Merlot.
