Revelry Merlot

Region: Walla Walla (Columbia Valley), Washington
Country: United States
Year: 2008

Shop review: If you've ever relaxed in a cozy chair, you know what this Merlot is all about - soft, smooth, and luxuriously deep, with flavors of blueberry and black cherry supported by subtle suggestions of oak and spice.
My review: A very full-bodied wine. I could taste the deep and rich flavors of the fruit, especially the cherries. The taste reminded me of a deep brown leather. It was very smooth as well.
I did not have food with this tasting.
