Frontera Central Valley Merlot
Too sweet and had a bizarre aftertaste. There are better budget merlot's out there.

Sep 29th, 2017Bought this to cook with on tails. I usually like a bit of green note in a wine, but this has too much of it. Palate was quite silly and vibrant though. Then again, one should not complain a $5 wine.
