Let this one breathe for a bit. Smooth and silky draw, full finish. Better with time.

Value! Super silky Merlot. Almost Blackberry type linger, but not too jammy, with faint smokey oak note.

Deep ruby red in color. Light on the nose. Fruity in character without a lingering finish. Smooth and very good. Great Value!

Little closed off on the nose at 1st, but opens up in a hour. Dark purple rim and a bright stone fruit forward taste on the tongue. Plums with berries. Nice drinking wine with food
