For the price, this is a very pleasant Merlot. Easy to drink with plenty of fruit. Nice from start to finish, Columbia Valley really does it right! Enjoyed this wine with a Thai meal, panang curry & vegetables. I appreciated the balance & flavor of this wine.

Not too bad for a budget wine under $10.00.

I am not usually a merlot guy but DAMN! Fruit forward with just the perfect amount of tannins. Definitely a repeat!

The description on the bottle is spot on. This is a smooth merlot. The chocolate flavors were not overwhelming.

Good wine. Bought at Kroger for 9.99 on sale. Blackberry, mocha taste. Very smooth. Rich. Only problem was it gave me a headache.

Fairly complex, dry red with earthy cherry aromas and flavors of mocha, dark fruits, spice, and some oak. Smooth mouthfeel and supple tannins. Lengthy finish. 13.5% Alc.
