title: Elyse 2012 Hossfeld Vineyard Merlot (Napa Valley)
description: From a vineyard 1,500 feet above the valley floor in Soda Canyon, blended with 4% Cabernet Sauvignon from Morisoli Vineyard, this is a beautiful beast of a wine, concentrated in red cherry and plum as well as mocha. Nicely weighted with soft tannin and length, it's well made and should age. Drink now through 2020.
variety: Merlot
designation: Hossfeld Vineyard
