Wine Folly
A typical Merlot has hints of cherry, plum, and chocolate (p. 131). Merlot from California has a sweeter cherry flavor (p. 132). In my tasting, I tasted the plum and cherry, but there was a taste of blackberries. I did not decant as WineFolly suggests but at least I drank it in an actual wine glass (p.131)
I loved this wine, especially for the price point. I did not eat this with food but I had Spanish Rice and Chicken from El Rods 40 minutes prior. It was a very fruity wine and not harsh on the acidity which was nice.
