Starts with a significant oaky fragrance and taste, strong to the palette. Since I'm not drinking with the suggested meats I might favor it more. I would agree, its complex but at the most slightly sweet. The taste seems to last and a nice after taste. #stilllearning

Pretty sweet for my taste. I could taste the vanilla right away. (I only bought this one because it was the only merlot available at the rinky dink shop I ended up at; I tend to avoid vanilla flavors). It doesn't have an overall bad flavor - just a bit too sweet for me. Alcohol content low. Rating more for my own future reference rather than just to give this wine a bad name. If you like slightly sweet wines, it's not bad.
