"reminiscent of a great vintage of Petrus" - Robert Parker





2010 Gundlach Bundschu Merlot Heritage Selection...$79.99
The 2010 Merlot Heritage Collection displays a strikingly dense ruby/purple color as well as a tremendous bouquet of cassis, mocha and black cherries vaguely reminiscent of a great vintage of Petrus. No kidding! Full-bodied, powerful and rich, this 100-case cuvee tips the scales at 14.5% alcohol. A stunning effort, it is as great a Merlot as one will find in Northern California. It should age effortlessly for 15-20 years.
Rated 96/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advcoate
