Karl Lawrence 2019 HBR Merlot, Howell Mountain, Napa Valley - 1 Bottle
With its deep garnet hue, the wine offers an enticing visual invitation. The nose is immediately greeted by an array of aromas—juicy red plums, ripe black cherries, and crushed berries mingle harmoniously with hints of dried herbs, mocha, and a touch of floral essence. On the palate, this Merlot exhibits a remarkable balance between richness and finesse. Velvety tannins support flavors of dark fruit compote, raspberry preserves, and a subtle undertone of toasty oak. The wine's structural integrity is apparent, providing both a solid framework and an inviting texture. The finish is elegant and enduring, leaving behind a lingering impression of ripe fruit and a whisper of vanilla.
