2015 Merlot, Oakville Station
$90 / 750ml
Sourced from the heart of Oakville and from a near-perfect vintage, this 2015 Merlot shows the power and polish from Napa’s “other” red grape. Ripe plum, cocoa-dusted cherries, and a brush of graphite ride on a velvet texture, with just enough structure to remind you it’s from Cabernet country. Eight years of cellar age have brought it into beautiful balance—lush, layered, and ready for its moment.
This is not your soft-and-sweet Merlot. This is Oakville. This is 2015. And this is why Merlot deserves your attention again.
95% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon
