Amuse Bouche Napa Valley Red Blend 2018 (6x75cl)
This newly released 2018 vintage is an absolute knock out. With a phenomenal score of 98 points from Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advcoate, it is their highest scoring Napa Merlot of the vintage and with just 1,450 cases made it’s also one of the rarest.
“The medium to full-bodied palate is an exercise in poise, delivering loads of vibrant black fruit and exotic spice flavors with bold freshness plus exquisitely ripe, rounded tannins, finishing with fantastic length and perfume. Absolutely stunning Merlot!” – Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate
The 2018 Proprietary Red Blend Amuse Bouche is composed of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with bombastic scents of ripe black plums, boysenberries and Black Forest cake with hints of Morello cherries, star anise, cardamom and red roses, plus a touch of garrigue. The medium to full-bodied palate is an exercise in poise, delivering loads of vibrant black fruit and exotic spice flavors with bold freshness plus exquisitely ripe, rounded tannins, finishing with fantastic length and perfume. Absolutely stunning Merlot!
