It's been a long time since I've had a Meeker Merlot, and I love it as much as ever! It has a robust flavor with dark red berries. Smooth finish. Great for just drinking or paired with dinner. — a year ago

Medium bodied. Dark fruits with a hint of tobacco. Smooth with an elegant finish. Great to pair with steak or just to enjoy, as we are tonight. Stag's Leap does not disappoint. — 4 years ago

As Santa's elves prepare for the long night ahead while children nestle snug in their beds, this bottle jumped out as a great selection for tonight. Aromas of plum and cherry fill the senses. The flavor of ripe red fruits carries forth with the wonderful balance of sweet and smooth without losing any robustness. Definitely one to enjoy and keep a few extra bottles on hand. — 4 years ago

Medium bodied wine that lingers on the tongue. Bouquet is full of rich red fruit aromas. Hints of other dark berries, fullness of taste, rich and flavorful. Perhaps some cocoa? We enjoyed this bottle with a wonderful meal. It was great to try a different grape than we've had before. Would absolutely drink again. — 3 years ago

Aroma of spice and black pepper. Medium bodied with hints of dark fruits and plums. Pairs well with the Italian-esque dish I prepared. I don't usually drink Shiraz so this was a bit different from my usual preferences. — 5 years ago

Stag's Leap is a long time favorite of mine. I've been drinking it for probably 15 years. It's smooth and well balanced. Chocolates, hazelnut, and berries flavor this medium bodied wine. — 3 years ago

We absolutely love this Pinot. It has an excellent price point especially for the amount of flavor. We keep this regularly stocked in our collection. If you are looking for a wonderful Pinot noir, grab 2 bottles of this. You'll be sad if you get only one! — 4 years ago

With Christmas music in the background and an unseasonably calmness about my house, I decided to try this one tonight. I couldn't remember what drew me to purchase it. However the aroma and first taste immediately confirmed an excellent selection. This malbec blend is delightful. Aged in both French and American oak barrels provides a unique flavor. The aroma of dark berries, chocolate and perhaps a little smoke make this smooth wine even more enjoyable to taste. This is definitely one to enjoy on it's own or with dinner. — 4 years ago
