Ruby, a bold Merlot with berry aromas and perfume spice. On the palate tart cherry and strawberry flavors with spice, cacao and leafy herb notes. Firm tannins, medium finish ending with earthy rustic character.

I consider this to be my House Merlot. Becoming my signature Wine at home. Good body, sweet for a Merlot, nice full and wet on the palate. Not as refined as others in the same class, yet this to me is the Heineken of Merlots, appeals to the masses.

Very smooth, a bit fruity, nice taste with a small kick at the end.

Black fruit. A little vanilla and spice. Not very dry and a little sweet.

Very smooth, nice balance of sugar and tannin. I definitely will buy it again.
