Bright red. Floral strawberry nose. Very soft. No tannins. Little acid pretty fruit. Good but overpriced. $33

One of my favorites! Red fruit, a little vanilla from the oak, not too acidic, beautiful wine to sip on with or without food. ❤️

Another bottle from the dinner I catered tonight. While it's a step down from the Pluribus, this is well made Napa Merlot. Red fruit for sure, but not jammy or extracted. The oak gives it structure without overwhelming the palate with vanilla. Well rounded and killer with food.
