My local wine proprietor suggested this Merlot. Super good value. See my earlier notes. Second bottle 6 months later was very good.

Very drinkable Merlot that won't break the bank. Notes of spice, milk chocolate and plenty of cherry. The bottle age has softened the tannins enough to enjoy with a lot of different food pairings. We paired with a marinated lemon chicken and it held up against the acidity of the chicken. Nice long finish.
