2006 Merus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

92 pts - Wine Advocate

["Although closed at present, Merus’ inky/purple-colored 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon displays enormous power and richness. It is a massive, blockbuster-styled effort possessing black fruits, plenty of spicy oak, hints of licorice and graphite, and mouth-staining tannins and extract in the finish. Forget it for 4-5 years, and drink it over the following 20-25. - Robert M. Parker, Jr. (22-12-2008)"]

92 pts - Wine Spectator

["A bold, rich style that's very well-done, making the mix of extracted dark berry, mocha, cedar and crushed rock sync with drying dusty oak, turning to melted black licorice on the finish.—2006 California Cabernet blind retrospective (December 2015). Drink now. 1,200 cases made. — JL (2016)"]
