Lot #414. Melka Proprietary Red La Mekerra Vineyard 2011

Description: Consists of 3 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 91-93 AG.
"A strong wine for the year, 2011 Metisse La Mekerra Vineyard is dark, sumptuous and rich. The 2011 is a bit more floral, higher-toned and more nervous than the 2010, but it has excellent balance and plenty of potential. The firm tannins will require a few years to soften, so readers will have to be patient . . . . Philippe Melka’s roster of consulting clients reads like a Who’s Who of Napa Valley, but the wines Melka makes with his wife Cherie are just as compelling. The Metisse wines are made from vineyards in Knights Valley and St. Helena." Wine Advocate #206, Apr 2013
Provenance: The Aragonés Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $190
