About the wine
Your best rated Napa Merlot from a Napa Valley veteran
- Ken's spent 40 years making Napa Valley wine famous – and he's made over fifty 90+ scores worth.
- But this wine industry champion had never made his own wine... until you came along. Thanks to Angels, Ken's bottling some of the most expert Napa red anywhere.
- Now he's one of your most popular winemakers... and every Napa grape he touches immediately thanks him for the honor. This Merlot is one of your favorites!
Best before
3 to 5 years or more if stored properly.
Serving advice
A young red wine should be allowed to breathe prior to drinking. Decanting would be best.
Food match
Red meats (my favorite with Merlot is Lamb), hearty dishes or spicy foods.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Ken Deis
Years Angel-funded: 2012-2022
- Ken has more 90+ scores from Parker, Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast than he can name – there's just too many to count. He's the man behind Napa's greatest hits.
- He'd spent decades working in some of Napa's most prestigious wineries including Joseph Phelps, Flora Springs, and Heitz before becoming Naked's first Napa winemaker. What a LEGEND he's been for you!
- Ken has devoted a lifetime to perfecting his craft, and his wines are the proof. When Ken crafts Cabernet, he delivers. When Ken hankers for Merlot, he nails it. Whatever he sets out to do, you can trust it's flawless.
