A classic "Northern Napa Merlot" with aromas of black cherry and spices on the nose, and rich red fruit flavors like cherry and blueberry. Smooth and luscious!

CWC Staff Pick: "Excellent color, the inky tone made me think it was a Cabernet.  I like this wine all by itself...no food needed." Sue Crawford Administration Manager

This is no wimpy Merlot. Thanks.

Kyle Kilness from New York

I drink Zin and usually don't get involved with Merlot. That is until I tried this Ballentine. It's a great warm-up for the heavy hitting Zin's I sip on in the wee hours of the night. If you want some bold Merlot then this is the weapon of choice. Trust me, you'll be howlin' at the moon in no time.

We love the excellent service and tasty, tasty wines! ~ Bob & Peggy Reese, VA
