I snatched this one from the bargain bin for $7 and was able to enjoy the first glass. I thought it was better than when first tasted 12-18 months ago.

Medium red color. The nose was earthy with plum notes. In the mouth, this light-bodied wine displayed plums, herbs, and occasional chocolate notes. The acidity was clean, but there wasn't much depth on the midpalate. The finish was average. Overall, this wine seemed pretty generic, but with hamburgers, it showed a little more depth. Drink with food.

(Charles Smith velvet Devil Merlot) #3; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-very candy-like cherry on the attack; a little vanilla oak action that concerns me a little; PALATE-solid dark chocolate on the mid-palate surrounded by good amount of oak; solid red fruit; not to inspiring or interesting; a little awkward and disjointed on the finish; a little rusty nail juice meet red fruit; it's OK, but doesn't do much for me; GV-84

surprisingly drinkable; dark, rich color; very smooth; not earthy at all.

Bitter tasting and acidic. Maybe a lot of time open would make it drinkable, maybe.
