Trader Joe's
Grand Reserve Lot# 70 Stags Leap District Merlot
Last bottle. Consistent tasting notes. A mouthful of cherry, with hints of dark chocolate. Fruit-forward, but lush and smooth. High QPR.

Sep 23rd, 2016A mouthful of cherry, with hints of dark chocolate on the smooth finish. Fruit-forward, but not in an overpowering way. Still fantastic. Thankfully one bottle left.

Jun 29th, 2016Surpriaingly complex for a TJ's wine. Unbalanced with oak over powering plum and black fruit flavors. Loads of tannins.
