Date of Tasting: April 11th, 2013
Name:Wilson Daniels Merlot
Variety: Merlot

Shop Review: Made predominantly from Paso Robles grapes, the wine is fullbodied and silky yet robust, with aromas of black cherry and plum and a palate of blackberry, raspberry and blueberry jam laced with vanilla and toast.

 My Review: On the nose, I was once again able to detect cherries. When I tasted this wine, I knew that it was too overbearing for my palate. It had a toasted oak flavor. It was also a very dry wine. I was able to detect some spices. Overall, it was not the best wine for me.
