Not too bad for the price, although the markup is pretty high at the Disney Grand California. It has ver mild true Merlot characteristics with minimal complexity. Good fruit but a little bit too much acidity on the front of the pallet.

This wine should be embarrassed to call itself a merlot. It is quite thin and too sweet. Very little depth of flavour. Not what I would expect from a merlot at all!

Berry coffee on nose. Carmel, toffee sauce on the palate. Cali crap. Not undrinkable, but not something I’d be happy to have.

I got on the fruity side. Friuty nose, front of the palate blackberry hints, back of the palate silky finish, not too acidic. Lovely mid-day waiting for my flight glass of wine.
