2006 May - The Pour - Dining & Wine - New York Times Blog (#)

„Swanson, of course, has a vested interest. It is the largest producer of estate-grown merlot in the Napa Valley, and it argues that merlot, grown under the proper conditions by people who have control over the viticulture and the winemaking, should not be lumped in with industrially produced merlot, which accounts for most of what is consumed. Swanson itself makes a plush, velvety style of merlot that, though not to my taste, is a pretty good wine.“

The Silk Road of Wine (#)

„About 20,000 acres are industrially farmed in the hot Central Valley,the equivalent of all the merlot planted in Napa, Sonoma and WashingtonState combined. And that Central Valley merlot accounts for about 75percent of the merlot wine produced in the United States. If you areever possessed at a bar to say, "I'll just have a merlot," this is mostlikely what you will get.“

My Wine Blog from Napa Valley: 2004 Pride Mountain Vineyards Merlot (#)

„"This one's for Cabernet lovers! Although 100% Merlot, the intense inky ruby red hue and aromas of black cherry and cassis will make this a fun wine to slip into Cabernet tastings as a ringer to win. The mid palate is thick with ripeness and broad textures and the slight grip of fine tannin frames the lingering fruit and espresso flavors in the long finish." $56.00 * (text and price on the “

WBW #29 Biodynamic Wine: Deerfield Ranch Winery 2001 Russian River Merlot (#)

„This wine is made in the French merlot styles of St. Emillion, so it's not a thick berry-blockbuster, but rather an elegant style with nice perfume of cloves and blueberries.  Robert added a little Cabernet for depth and a longer finish. It is full and ripe, but  not at all stewed or dense.“

„I actually had good hopes. The Colchagua valley is a pretty good wine making area in Chile, just south of the better known Maipo valley, and its Merlots have a decent reputation. I'll try another winery next time, I guess.“
