Established in 1876, Beringer is the oldest continuous winery in Napa, according to their literature. Their wines, for the most part, almost define New World products - fruit forward, full bodied and ripe.
The "Founders' Estate" Merlot is no exception. Rich, jammy notes of plums and raisins are balanced with a very light leathery tone. The mouthfeel is very dry, with chewy tannins and low acidity. It's tastes of ripe summer fruit.
This is a very nice wine with food, but it's excellent all by itself (though unfortunately, it's not vegan). Enjoy!
Cheers,
Dave
