November 11, 2019 - Merlot très décevant, surtout du point de vue rapport qualité/prix (22,40$ SAQ). Robe rubis pâle, translucide (comme un pinot). Nez confus et ennuyant de cerises, confitures, poivrons verts, pneu brûlé. En bouche, aucune durée, texture acqueuse, une pointe d'acidité, saveurs confuses....Un merlot américain de mauvaise facture qui ne mérite pas le détour....

August 28, 2018 - Was recommended at the retail store for someone who likes red wines but not too dry. This reasonably priced wine from Monterrey County was invitingly drinkable with no rough edges and a soft, smooth mouthfeel. Paired well with homemade pizza and green salad. No complaints!

July 22, 2018 - Predominantly flavors of rotted cherries with a sweetish bent. Quite similar to the Cabernet which I also had. Not worth finding.
