Sunrise Merlot
Typical South American wine. Ok for the price. Not great

May 29th, 2017Light caramel smell. Tastes like sweet pepper and sour cherry in the beginning; citrus flavoured umami in the end. Overall solid wine, pairs well with mediterranean cuisine. Optimal drinking temperature around 16 degrees.

May 19th, 2017Нос вполне себе резервный: встречает увесистым сладким какао и ванилью (!) Далее проступает "просто вино", но сладкие бочечные тона всё равно пробиваются.
Вкус сладковатый, несложный, с горчинкой, но для полусухого вполне пристойный.
Вообще, оказалось сильно лучше ожидания.
NB Контра без русских буковок.

The 2013 is not spicy at all. I ask the person I was drinking it with and she did not think it was spicy either. This wine was a gift so I opened to taste it with the notion that it would be spicy and I was pleasantly surprise. I don't usually buy Merlots but I may consider buying this one.

Mar 9th, 2016I like red wine after food, while I read. This is not that wine. Too spicy and plummy for that. Interesting taste but made me wish I made marinara sauce with meatballs (or eggplant). I'll try again next week and let you know. Definitely stronger than my go to merlot, but same vineyard. (Do I have any other friends on the Delectable app? Need wine recommendations.)
