Casa Rapel Valley Merlot

Meh. A bit on the acidic side. Hoping that it needs more time to breathe. It’s not terrible, but I certainly wouldn’t want to be that guy that brought this to the party ....

Fireplace and herb whiffs, dark cherry, tomato stalk, chewy tannins. I have a deep appreciation for Chilean wines, merlot showing so much differently there.

Bought this a few days ago from a corner store. For the price point, it's not bad. Predictable cherry and earth, with a bit of that Chilean rusticity that I tend to really dig. Held up well on the second day but is pretty faded by Day 3. Overall a decent value.

Slightly harsh Merlot, not as mellow as its Australian cousins which is the style I prefer.
