This wine was very "humpy"... I started off hating it, then by the middle of the bottle, it started to grow on me and finally towards the end, I was mad that I had spent any money on it at all. It was kind of like the movie Titanic. 🚢 I feel like I got completely DiCaprio'd by this wine.

Quality merlot from Washington for the price. Smooth and easy to drink. Not as complex.
