Bridget Raymond Intertwine Napa Valley Merlot 2014
About the wine
Sneak peak of a top Napa Red - premiere Oakville vineyards
- Bridget's sumptuous, layered red blend has huge aging potential, so laying it down for just a few months will pay you BIG rewards. It's predominantly made with Oakville Merlot, one of Napa's hallmark appellations. This is the good stuff that normally comes in a $40+ bottle heavier than a bowling ball.
- But Bridget is our Oakville queen. She grew up there and knows everybody and she got a great deal on this amazing fruit. A little trust goes a long way in wine country.
- Small prestigious vineyards mean exclusive, small volumes so this wine might be out before the holidays.
Best before
This wine will be showing best after May 2016, for those with the patience to wait 6-10 months before opening, it will be rewarded.
