The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon White Herold by Mark Herold is a selection of the richest and most complex and complete barrels, using primarily Darnajou and Taransaud. This wine shows real high-quality, chocolaty, espresso and toasty notes, along with enormous quantities of blackberry and blueberry fruit. It is spicy, super-rich and opulent with 2012's voluptuous, multi-layered texture well displayed. Quite pure and very much in Mark Herold?s bigger-than-life style of Cabernet. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.

About the Producer
Mark started his first venture into the wine world at Joseph Phelps Vineyards as the Research Enologist. Here Mark was able to bridge the scientific method with practices in winemaking in order to determine which procedures really make the best expressions of wine quality and seamless oak integration.
Mark’s enthusiasm for making wine took on a life of its own leading to the creation of Merus in 1998; his personal Cabernet label. Being made in his home garage in downtown Napa, this project was a labor of love. After selling Merus, Mark continues his quest for making delicious, balanced, age-worthy wines here at MHW.
