Sommelier and wine educator, Amanda McCrossin keeps coming back to a question most of us never get to answer: which of the wines we’re drinking right now will people still be talking about in thirty years?
She’s already had one in her glass.
Napa planted Cabernet. Duckhorn planted Merlot, and kept planting it. We partnered with Amanda to taste where that’s gotten us.
The trend has come and gone. The Merlot is still here. Fifty years in, we’re still making wines worth talking about.
