About this bottle
Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection Merlot 2017 comes from Sterling's home base in Calistoga at the north end of Napa Valley, though the Vintner's Collection tier draws fruit more broadly across California rather than sticking to a single estate vineyard. It's a full-bodied, smoothly structured red with blackberry, plum, and dark cherry up front, framed by toasted oak and baking spice, and a long finish that turns slightly sweet with vanilla. Nothing austere or tannic here — it's built to drink easily rather than age for decades. A solid choice for weeknight red-meat dinners or anyone who wants a reliably plush Merlot without hunting for a single-vineyard bottling.
How to drink Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection Merlot
Pull the cork twenty minutes before pouring, or give it a quick decant, to soften the oak a touch. It's an easy match for grilled steak, burgers, or a hard aged cheddar — nothing fussy required.

Questions about this bottle
What temperature should Merlot be served at?
Serve this Merlot around 60-65°F, slightly cooler than room temperature, to keep the fruit bright without dulling it the way an ice-cold pour would.
What food pairs well with Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection Merlot?
Its plush fruit and moderate tannins make it a natural match for grilled steak, burgers, or roasted lamb, and it holds up well against a sharp aged cheddar too.
Is Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection Merlot from Napa Valley?
Sterling Vineyards is based in Calistoga in Napa Valley, but the Vintner's Collection tier sources fruit more broadly across California rather than being a single-estate Napa bottling.
