Supple, expressive, and unmistakably Napa, Charles Krug Merlot Napa Valley 2022 showcases the elegance and depth that have made this varietal a longtime favorite. As one of Napa Valley’s pioneering wineries, Charles Krug continues to deliver wines of exceptional quality and craftsmanship—and this vintage is no exception.

The 2022 Merlot opens with rich aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, and cocoa, accented by hints of cedar and baking spice. On the palate, it’s smooth and well-structured, offering layers of red and dark fruit, silky tannins, and a refined touch of toasty oak. A balanced acidity gives this wine a fresh lift, leading to a long, polished finish.

Versatile and food-friendly, this Merlot pairs beautifully with grilled pork tenderloin, roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or herb-crusted lamb. It’s equally enjoyable for a cozy night in or an elegant dinner gathering.
