April 16, 2013 - Not nearly as good as the Petite Sirah, which was actually a surprise at $5. This Merlot is just a bit lackluster.
The wine looks Garnet colored. The legs are Fast. It smells like and Strawberry Jam. It tastes like Cherry, Strawberry Jam, and Cranberry. The body is Light/Medium. The wine finishes Medium.
