Chic, hip, ultra trendy are all words usually used to denote hotels or fashion trends, but Merus Wines is changing that. The winery and retail outlet, located in the Napa Valley, has the cache of a five star restaurant, and a stunning decor like no other.
Dutch firm Uxus Design is behind this gem, and you can tell they know what they are doing. The winery features exposed brick, and the use of both empty and full wine casks throughout. Check out the gallery for a taste of what Merus has to offer. Can anyone say "Roadtrip to Napa?"
