Winery Review: Round, velvety and mouth-filling, this is a satisfying Merlot at a bargain price. Aromas of black cherries and herbs fold in hints of cinnamon and mocha, while the flavors are generally fruity, but with a slightly tomatoey note. Soft on the finish. Drink now.
My Review: I did not find this to be a "drink now" wine as the previous review stated. I usually really enjoy merlots and did not find this one to live up to it's counterparts. I did get the dark berries and a woody scent on the nose. I thought there to be a bit of a menthol palate along with dark fruits. I also found it to be very tannic. It was not my favorite of the tasting.
I did not try this with food.
