My second bottle of this Merlot. It is a very simple wine, and if you are drinking it after dinner, it stands up very well. But the flavors of plums & berries are too subtle to firmly stand up against more robust food pairings such as steak, various strong cheeses (Gorgonzola, for instance), or pasta with marinara.

Okay, but not a lot of layering. A little too much heat?
