2016 Deux Chevaux Vineyard, Yountville AVA

Former Sommelier of the French Laundry Paul Roberts once said that Tamber Bey’s Merlot is how Merlot “should taste”. Almost Cabernet in style, this Merlot starts with big black fruit but settles into a smoothness that only a true Merlot can deliver. Signature Collection wine.

Andy Jones - Winemaker Notes A classic Merlot. This aromatic, fruit-forward wine delivers a core of black fruit, with black currant and notes of chocolate. It is full-bodied, with a well- integrated texture and velvety tannins. .
