Community Tasting Notes 4

  • Tabergman Likes this wine: 90 points

    September 4, 2020 - Same as my prior note, should have let more time lapse. Very nice merlot, especially for the price. Really cherry. Has a bit of pepperiness, like syrah.

    I mostly drink OR PN, but don't have aversion to merlot. Enjoyable crowd-pleaser.

    August 10, 2020 - I'm glad I held on to one of these. Bitterness/astringency gone completely, a bit sweeter, cherry, slightly pruny, with the oak integrated and notes of chocolate and baking spices. A bit too sweet now for my tastes, but I think most people will like this and it's enjoyable and an amazing qpr for the price I paid (about $10). Drink up if you have any.

    April 1, 2020 - Very cherry. Bright acidity, nice tannins. Nose is fruity yet complex. Finish tannin and fruit, still think this is young.

    May 19, 2018 - Didn't like it as much as others. Sharper and s bit more astringent.
