Vintage Report

For 2022 Californian red wines, the Robert Parker Vintage Chart gives scores ranging from 88 to 91 points. This indicates a very good vintage that produced smooth, early accessible wines.

Barefoot's red wine is a masterpiece that has taken the wine world by storm, and it's easy to see why. This wine exudes an unparalleled softness and finesse that captivates your senses. Barefoot's journey began in 1965, when visionary California winemaker Davis Bynum created his first glass of Barefoot wine. In the humble surroundings of his garage, he revolutionized the wine world by producing wines that embodied softness and refinement. The name "Barefoot" is a nod to the traditional method of pressing grapes with bare feet. This Merlot, their very first creation, remains true to Davis Bynum's principles.

Barefoot's Signature Wine

In 1986, dynamic entrepreneurs Michael Houlihan and Bonnie Harvey took over the reins of Barefoot and continued the tradition of excellence. With significant investments in modern viticultural techniques, they have raised Barefoot's quality standards to new heights. Jennifer Wall, a talented female winemaker, oversees winemaking and ensures that every bottle preserves Barefoot's signature flavor. Thanks to the mature vineyards and the team's dedication, Barefoot wines have become a symbol of consistency and quality.

Barefoot's Majestic Merlot Vineyard

In the heart of California, Barefoot's vineyards stretch out, bathed in abundant sunshine. These ideal conditions allow the Merlot grapes to ripen to perfection, resulting in a wine that embodies softness and richness. Although harvested mechanically, a strict selection process is applied to ensure only the finest grapes are used in the wine. The result? A wine that exudes pure pleasure and refinement.

The Seductive Taste of Barefoot Merlot

Barefoot's Merlot is one of the most sought-after wines in their impressive range. Upon pouring, you're immediately struck by its deep, rich color. The aroma is a symphony of fruity notes, with hints of cherry, plum, blackberry, and a touch of mocha. The palate is a harmony of softness and ripeness, with the Merlot grape's fruity notes, such as blackberry, plum, and black cherry, coming to the forefront. Subtle hints of smoky oak and vanilla complete the experience, resulting in a wine that is both smooth and unforgettable.
