Robert Mondavi Vint Merlot

"Prime Cut 55’s Merlot is a spicy and full bodied Californian red wine. With flavors of black cherry, plum, oak, and spice. It is a semi-dry wine, with a semi-bold finish. This wine has little to no acidic flavor and is a smooth, easy to drink red." —winemaker

"Chloe Merlot is a full-bodied, elegant wine with a rich burgundy color palette, soft tannins and smooth acidity. Abundant flavors of freshly picked blackberries, black cherry and ripe plum lead to a plush, velvety mouthfeel followed by delicate notes of vanilla, mocha and spice. This complex, sensuous wine is exceptionally well-balanced with sophisticated intensity and a silky finish that lingers on the tongue." —winemaker

"Our Apothic Merlot reveals depths of black cherry, boysenberry and wild blueberries with subtle hints of vanilla and coconut. To add dimension to the wine, we added a touch of a unique grape called Teroldego, which marries well with the Merlot to create plush tannins and a long, lasting finish. Most of the fruit for this Merlot was sourced from Lodi, with some originating from a vineyard near Brentwood. We selected Merlot grapes for their dark fruit intensity and generous tannins to create a velvety mouthfeel. Portions of this wine were oak-aged for 3-4 months to preserve elegant fruit characteristics." —winemaker

"Soft and supple, with spicy, black cherry and pomegranate flavors that fold into fresh herb and cedar notes. Blackstone Merlot is deep garnet in color. Delightful aromas reflect ripe plums, fresh raspberries, summer berries and rose tea. The generous aromas are echoed in the palate, which is supple and well structured with great length of flavors. The signature style of Blackstone is an 'integrated' Merlot with rich fruit; surrounded by elegant creaminess, supple oak flavors and firm tannins. Blackstone Merlot is friendly, flavorful and balanced, encouraging the marriage between food and wine." -winemaker

Winemaker Beth Liston marshals the best agricultural and winemaking resources from around the globe to deliver the unexpected: a bold wine that outperforms its price.

Aromas of blue violet, toasted oak, mocha and brown spice rise out of the glass and lead to a long, plush finish." —winemaker
