Tasting notes: Quite rich and flavorful, with layers of currant, black cherry, anise, cedar and toasty vanilla-scented notes, finishing long and detailed. Soft and luscious on entry, with bright, almost sweet flavors of ripe stone fruit. The medium weight and stylish finish are typical of Napa Valley’s finest Merlot.

SUTTER HOME CHENNIN BLANC is extremely cheap for a decent desert wine. Now pros might not enjoy it, but I must say for a social situation where you do not know if people even like wine it is perfect. Even people who don’t like wine will feel they fit in. It is sweet as sugar but gives an after taste of a wine. Nothing like going to a party and there is 4 bottles of MERLOT and your a white wine drinker. Whats the cheapest you have seen this wine and let me know what you think about!! Oh ya Join US.

SETTLERS’ SPICED WINE Jamestown Cellars NV

Cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and other spices were added to this Merlot-Cabernet Sauvignon blend. Designed as a mulled wine, it is meant to be served warm during winter by the fireplace, or after a cold day outdoors.
When served chilled in the summer months, it makes an agreeable substitute for Sangria.
The art of adding spices, or “mulling” wine is a centuries-old tradition. In the cold winters of northern Europe, wine would often be served warm during the holiday season. The English brought this custom to Virginia in the 16th century.

The ultra-cool climate region of Orange in NSW, allows this Merlot to develop excellent depth of colour and fruit flavours which exude vibrant dark berry characters. The firm but well rounded tannins reflect the 16 month French oak maturation which the wine undergoes prior to bottling. Cellaring potential is 10 to 15 years.

This is a good wine. I purchased the bottle for $7 at K-Mart. It has a strong bite with the first sip but then becomes mellow and a little sweet. I would recommend this wine to all!
