Santa Margarita Ranch Merlot

Good everyday sipper! Merlot is back!

If I tasted this blind I could have sworn it was a Bordeaux. This #pasorobles #merlot is special - laid back fruit, pronounced acidity, earthy spice with some coffee, pepper and a faint bit of licorice. Nice wine if you’re like me and really prefer the Old World style.

Warm aromas of dried cherries, violets, toasty oak and spice. A chewy, velvety texture delivers mouth filling flavors of blueberry, pomegranate, vanilla bean and sweet tobacco, with a sturdy, supple finish.

Good for the price
Lots of vanilla and carmel

We went to a Winebow Tasting in NYC, it was our favorite Merlot!

Very good. Not too heavy or dry.

I've tasted a few bottles from this vintage and find they are not consistent. A decent cab at this price price.

Very good full bodied wine fruit up front with deep rich finish. Perfect for my mood.

Well it's a cab not Merlo lol. Date is on side of bottle but is 2014. Great carmel scent on the nose and taste is sorta of slate with a dry tail with alcohol. Overall very good and cheap.

Very nice wine. Went well with Prownes and Italian seasonings.
