I don’t drink Merlot so often, but this one was nice and full!

Hm. Tangy at first, but nice finish.

Goes great with a good tomato and basil sauce.

Bonterra makes a wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon that shouldn't be forgotten... the Merlo on the other hand is a little immature and could be enhanced moving forward. Nice vanilla smell and interesting nose that would benefit more stable tasting uniformity.

Cherry berry. Cranberry chocolate. Organic grapes! Best merlot I've had in a while.
