WINE DESCRIPTION

Oberon Merlot is a premium wine produced by Michael Mondavi Family Estate, a renowned winery in Napa Valley, California. The grapes for this wine are sourced from select vineyards in the region, known for their ideal growing conditions and unique terroir. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by gentle crushing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in oak barrels to enhance its complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a rich and full-bodied Merlot, with notes of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate a well-crafted, elegant wine with a smooth finish.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Oberon Merlot is an elegant and smooth expression of the classic Merlot varietal.On the nose, aromas of ripe cherry and raspberry mingle with hints of cassis, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with silky tannins and balanced acidity that leads to a long, lingering finish. Flavors of dark berry fruits, nutmeg, and vanilla unfold, culminating in a memorable, harmonious finish.
