2019 IBEX Single Vineyard Merlot
Cabernet-Lovers Merlot
Our single-vineyard Napa Valley merlot is grown in our award winning Ibex Vineyard. Sustainably farmed and hand-harvested in Oak Knoll, our vines thrive among some of the most celebrated cabernet vineyards in Napa Valley. Harvested late for prime ripeness, this wine is aged in new French oak for a luscious, complex, full-bodied expression of merlot.
Merlot from this vineyard has won more than 30 gold medals!
