Wellington Vineyards Random Library Merlot Magnum -- Signed by Winemaker Peter Wellington
You will receive a magnum of Merlot from one of four vintages: 1992, 1995, 1998, 1999.

Merlot was Wellington Vineyards' flagship wine until a certain movie rendered Merlot unhip (thanks, Rex Pickett, creator of Miles) Our style of Merlot has always been inspired by Bordeaux rather than by Koolaid and has often been referred to as a "cab drinker's Merlot". The base is always from our small berry, low yield estate vines; some years 100% Merlot, sometimes blended with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet sauvignon and/or Petit Verdot. There has never been anything soft or insipid about our Merlots, and they have shown consistent ability to age very well.

Vendor Details

Wellington Vineyards

Founded:: 1986
Owner:: Peter Wellington
Location:: Glen Ellen, CA

Wellington Vineyards is owned Peter Wellington. Peter's father John purchased the winery site in 1986. At the time, it consisted of 20 acres of old vines and a few decrepit old fruit and nut trees. Replanting of part of the old vineyard and orchard started in 1988. The winery was completed in time for the 1989 crush. We grow approximately half the grapes we use and purchase the remainder, primarily from small, unique vineyards.

The estate vineyards consist of 21 acres, 8 of which are 85 to 117 years old. There are 24 different varieties in the old vineyard, with the most common being Zinfandel, Carignan, Alicante Bouschet, Grenache and Syrah. In addition, there are 10 acres of eleven to sixteen year old vines that consist of Merlot, Chardonnay, Marsanne, and Syrah. We grow more Merlot than anything else. Three more acres were replanted in 2001, predominantly to Syrah, Zinfandel and Grenache.
