Hunt Cellars is an extraordinary place. They produces boutique quantities of almost all red wines that win a disproportionate number of awards.

 

Each year David Hunt selects the best barrels to set aside for his very special Winemakers Private Reserve label. The 2005 Merlot WMPR has a lovely nose of cherry, plum, coffee, chocolate, and currants. The palate is incredibly lush and smooth with flavors of plum and currants infused with notes of oak and licorice.
