Avoid! So unexpected from Dunham. Nothing; nada; just flat juice. A wine club selection. Merlot just ain't their bag, I would guess. Bring on more CS from Lewis!!

We just opened a 5L so this held up a bit different than a regular bottle. Still has a lot of fruit on it with a nice bite at the end. Decanting it so it should smooth out over time.
