Believe It Darioush - Signature Merlot - Napa Valley Deal Alert: 75% Off [LPxUVpiq]

Overview: Darioush Khaledi was instilled at an early age with the winemaking craft of his father, inspired by wine culture in the literary city of Shiraz - in modern day Iran - and the ancient city of Persepolis. He became a lifelong collector, seeking out old world wines infused with tradition and energized by modern technique.

Tasting Notes: Deep floral and enticing dark plum aromas introduce a poised and polished Merlot. Winegrowing on our high elevation Sage Vineyard on Mount Veeder provides power and earthy complexity to the wine's core, while our valley floor estates lend a more saturated profile of vibrant fruits. A refined medley of dark Rainier cherries and dried cranberries are accentuated by savory notes of oolong tea, cinnamon stick, and Tahitian vanilla.

Pairing: Lamb
