Begins with pleasant aromas of black cherries, baking spices, and vanilla. On the pallate the wine is a bit thinner than I expected and is light/medium bodied, off-dry, with well integrated soft tannins. However, it has an astringent acidity that unfortimately overwhelms much of the flavor. Certainly not a bad wine, just...unmemorable. #weekdaywine ($7.5) [7/5/16]

Warm, medium bodied, rather sweet for a merlot and easy to drink. Gets fuller in flavour after it's been set aside to breathe.

Smooth, dark. Blackberries and salt. Best at room temperature, turns to candy when chilled.
