The ‘13 Broadside Merlot is so dark that only a speck of light gets through. The nose is fabulously deep, with big cassis aromas playing fast and loose with coffee, cocoa, licorice, sage and a puff of campfire smoke. Fruit flavors dominate the palate - blue and black berries, plums and black currants. There is a layer of holiday spice on a layer of chunky minerality wrapped in a lovely acidity and tied up with tannins that are almost as smooth as silk.

2018 vintage. I’m not usually a merlot drinker, so this was just a random trial of a wine that got decent reviews. Fine, but lacks any distinction, so won’t get again

Cola, eucalyptus and black cherry aromas, a lush oaky mouthfeel with bursts of ripe black cherry. A prototypical central coast merlot.

2018 Merlot ~$12 at Costco (2022 01)
Easy, drinkable, structure from start through finish. Will buy more (would def buy many more at $10).
