Product Details
Mercury Head is a premium Cabernet Sauvignon from Orin Swift Cellars, the Napa Valley winery founded by winemaker Dave Phinney. It is one of the winery's flagship red wines, combining fruit from the prized microclimates of Rutherford, St. Helena, and Atlas Peak, and it is known for its bold, concentrated style and distinctive label art.
The grapes come from several high elevation Napa Valley sites where rocky soils and cooler temperatures allow for slow, even ripening. The wine is aged in 80 percent new French oak for 18 months, which adds structure, depth, and a seamless integration of oak and fruit.
Dark violet with a ruby crown, the wine exhibits classic Napa Cabernet aromatics: black fruits like plum and cherry, dark chocolate, leather, and Rutherford Dust coalesce from the glass. The entry is elegant and begins to flood the palate with notes of cassis, blackberry, blueberry, caramel, and a touch of brown sugar and cinnamon, rich and bold. Seamless and focused, the wine closes with lingering dusty tannins and a touch of baking chocolate.
