A rum barrel-aged California Merlot from Robert Mondavi Private Selection, sourced primarily from Monterey County on the Central Coast. Select plenty of Merlot are aged in genuine rum barrels, then blended back with conventionally oak-aged Merlot to create the final cuvée, layering dark fruit with caramelised, tropically inflected notes from the rum wood.
It drinks best at cellar temperature, around 60-65°F, with a brief 15-minute decant to open the deeper molasses and coconut tones.
Tasting Notes
Ripe black cherry and raspberry, followed by molasses, maple and black plum, with subtle rum-cask sweetness.
Jammy plum and blueberry, then toasted coconut, mocha and rich vanilla, with a warm confectionery undertone balancing acidity and moderate tannin.
Medium-long, with lingering molasses and subtle spice fading into dark fruit, and persistent vanilla.
