Merlot: The Respect it Deserves

9 Bottles of Napa Valley wine, as noted

Some joke that Merlot could borrow Rodney Dangerfield's classic line: "I get no respect!" But you know that Merlot is worthy of plenty of respect and this generous vertical that spans vintages from 1986 through 1997 proves it. Cafaro Cellars' Merlot, with rich color and a depth of earthy aromas, is elegantly balanced with a warm and round finish. It will beautifully complement a vast range of dishes from grilled steaks and barbecue ribs to wild mushroom risotto and grilled fish. Each vintage of this wine is well worthy of aging.

Enjoy nine vintages of Merlot going back 27 years. Yes, you read that correctly—27 years. Try the '86 with braised short ribs, the '93 with a great steak and the '97 with Thanksgiving turkey. All of the bottles are magnums so you can invite a few friends to share.
