WineRelease.com's March 15, 2021 Monthly Newsletter.
This month we have 118 winery updates and 72 wineries releasing wine.
Spring officially starts on March 20, but Mustard is in full bloom in the Napa Valley. Below is my daughter Mia in a Rutherford vineyard with Mustard growing between the vines.
We had dinner with friends and they brought a magnum of 1997 Shafer Merlot from the 1999 Napa Valley Wine Auction which was a bit closed when we pulled the cork but opened up with beautiful dark fruit after 20 minutes. We enjoyed it with a rack of lamb. It is so much fun drinking old bottles of wine. One would think a 24 year old Napa merlot would not hold up, but this one did.
And now, onto the wine releases...
