Rhone, lots of it (Chicago, IL): Served as a Rhone blind. Candied and sweet, with some plummy elements. There's a bit of spice and earth that are quite nice, but I can't get past the sweetness of this wine. Ended up thinking it was a CdP from the mid 90s. In hindsight, this does taste exactly like merlot if Rayas made a merlot. Which I guess is pretty much what this is.
