Delicious and sweet... But not too sweet. Found it at Trader Joe's.

Hit or miss depending on the bottle. Sometimes a little too sweet, sometimes just right. Good option for a $5 bottle at Trader Joe's!

Not for me.... Would have never guessed a merlot. Tastes like just grape juice... Not sure if they stopped fermentation early or just added a bunch of sugar at the end.

A bit sweet for my tastes, but nice overall. Paired well with San Joaquin Gold cheese and crackers.

Smells kind of like cough syrup. Very fruity. Finishes pretty well.
