Included in Food & Wine's list of notable Merlots (2019 Mt. Brave Merlot). Positive mentions in Forbes and multiple fine-wine retailers
 

 
品鑑筆記
 
Toasty, brooding black-fruit core (blackberry, cassis, kirsch) with espresso, cocoa, violets and cigar-box notes. Velvety mouthfeel, graphite-like tannins and a long savory, mineral-tinged finish.
 

 
搭配食物
 
Western: roast lamb, grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, duck breast, aged cheeses. Asian: Peking duck, char siu, Korean BBQ (galbi), spicy Szechuan beef, hoisin-glazed pork.
 

 
釀造方式
 
High-elevation Mount Veeder fruit; small-lot fermentation with extended maceration, then barrel-aged (est. ~18 months) in French oak to build structure and complexity.
 

 
酒莊資訊
 
Mt. Brave (established by winemaker Chris Carpenter) sources grapes from steep, rocky Mount Veeder sites—high elevation, low yields—focusing on mountain-driven, single-vineyard expressions.
