Grgich Hills, Napa Valley, Estate Grown, Merlot 2004 There’s lots of plummy fruit in the nose. In the mouth you’ll find the characteristic Merlot suppleness, with nice density, a healthy kiss of oak and a lingering creaminess. The grapes for this wine are 100% Merlot and were sourced from vineyards in American Canyon, Carneros, Yountville and Calistoga. The wine was aged for 18 months in a combo of large and smalll Frenchy oak, 20% of which was new. Estate Grown, P&B in Rutherford 14.3% $45 at the winery, a gift to the class from the SFCWC Grgich
