Merlot always tastes great during the month of March, and lucky for us Merlot lovers, the 2012 vintage can be had for $27 per bottle, so come indulge in the madness.
And this just in!! We discovered a secret stash of the 2008 when preparing for our Library Reserve Club tasting this weekend, March 4 & 5! Nothing goes with everything like Merlot: it’s the perfect partnership grape that makes Cabernet Sauvignon sing more sweetly and compliments the cedary herbaceousness of Cab Franc with its fruity friendliness.
NEWS: We have a few openings in both the Sippers and Library Reserve Clubs: refer a friend or join yourself and we will reward you with a bottle of 2008 Honor Roll Merlot! Wine Sippers Club membership required for participation in our Library Reserve Club.
