Producer notes: "The name Parcel 41 is derived from the original agriculture land assessor's plot number for our ranch in Napa Valley, California. Our limited production Merlot is enormously rich, ripe and concentrated showing layers of blackberry, currant and mocha.Merlot grapes are typically more difficult to grow than Cabernet Sauvignon, which is why the best Merlots are often more expensive. Therefore the goal with Parcel 41 was to make a Merlot that is supple and elegant, yet still has the structure, depth and richness you find in more expensive offerings. 94% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon. 100% Napa Valley Barrel aged 16 months in 100% French oak (2 year old barrels). Alcohol: 14.2%."
