Tasting Note

A familiar nose of pedigree, the wine opens with aromatics of ripe raspberry, blackcurrant, cigar box and a hint of fresh sandalwood shavings and Herbs de Provence—mysteriously intriguing at first but evolving into a thoroughbred with time and air. Dense and layered on the palate, an immediate note of mixed berry strudel topped with fresh cream, fresh black raspberry and soft tannins akin to baking chocolate transition to a finish of both nuance and concentration. Still young, the wine will continue to evolve gracefully while retaining its luscious quality and classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon nature.

Product Notes

Orin Swift Mercury Head is a stunning, full-bodied red wine that is a celebration of the Napa Valley terroir. The wine is crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes sourced from some of Napa's most highly esteemed vineyards. The result is a wine that is rich and opulent, with dense notes of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and espresso, layered with subtle hints of vanilla and oak spice. The tannins are broad and silky, coating the mouth with a long, smooth finish. Orin Swift Mercury Head is a true masterpiece that showcases the best of Napa Valley in a single bottle, making it a must-try for any wine enthusiast.

About the Winery

Orin Swift

The history and venture of Orin Swift date back to as late as 1995 and begins with winemaker David Swift Phinney. David had been involved in the winemaking business for a long time, working in renowned wineries of the Napa Valley region. The experience and know-how he gained from his hands-on job at these places, including Whitehall Lane and Robert Mondavi Winery, helped him significantly later on to manage Orin Swift. Even as a student, he took up a friend’s offer and visited Florence, Italy. There, he got introduced to the wonders of wine. He also learnt the methods and practices of winemaking, getting him hooked.
