This picks up on our recent end-of-summer theme of value-priced reds.--- Iron Chef's Review ---
I haven't had this wine forever, and I can't remember why I stopped drinking this.
Nose: Warm Oak, dark/ extracted cherries, Coconut, nutmeg and cloves. Nice white pepper aromas. Very full nose.
Taste: Plumes and other stone/pitted fruits. Nice spicy pepper tastes and sun tan lotion. Really enjoyable and long finish especially for this price range..
Overall a very solid wine that delivers a long finish with interesting aromas. For some reason lately Merlots have been tasting very good to me.
I won't make the mistake of forgetting this wine in the future. I will have to have the Cab blend next.

We served this one along with the Cab/Syrah/Franc blend at the Festival of Flavors. Both were a huge hit!
