Hey, guys! Long time no see! Geez, it seems like forever since I’ve been over. Is that a new chandelier? Oh, it is lovely, just lovely.
Oh! I apologize. How awfully rude of me! Jim and Harriet, meet the White Oak Winery Napa Valley Merlot and Cabernet 4 Pack. I hope you don’t mind that I brought them along, but they just got into town and they really don’t know a lot of people… You understand, right?
Now then, these two are the 2006 Napa Valley Merlot twins. They’re both very bright with black cherry fruit notes, and I’m sure with their depth and complexity they’ll add a lot to the party.
And these two are 2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignons that I’m sure you’ll find a lot in common with. Yes, they might be a little dark and brooding with dark chocolate, cassis, and rose hips aromas, but the lingering finish of black fruit and oak will insure that you don’t forget them easily. Oh, and they’re aged in 50% new oak barrels for 20 months, and those barrels are 90% French. Didn’t you guys just come back from France? See, that’s what I thought.
Tell you what, I’ll take my coat into the next room while you all get acquainted. Oh, I love introducing people to new wines! It’s so exciting!
2006 Napa Valley Merlot:
Bright fruit notes of black cherry along with vanilla, coffee and chocolate reveal extra dimensions of depth and complexity. Rich and supple, with firm but integrated tannins
2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon:
Dark and slightly brooding with aromas of dark chocolate, cassis and rose hip. Flavors of currants, black plum and tea are supported by ripe tannins. Black fruit and toasty oak combine to form the lingering finish
Presently, White Oak Vineyards & Winery has nearly 750 acres of vineyards divided between the Napa, Alexander and Russian River Valleys. Roughly 10% of this fruit is used in White Oak wines with the balance being sold to other well known prestige wineries. We are currently producing five artisan quality wines for national distribution and two Estate wines, which are only available through our tasting room.
