Tasting - AmRhein Merlot

Name: AmRhein Merlot
Variety: 100% Merlot
Region: Virginia
Country: USA
Year: 2014
Price: $25

Winery Review: This medium bodied wine features layers of cherry, plum and black currant with undertones of oak.  This wine unfurls on the palate into a long fruity finish.


My Review:
This was pretty nice red wine. The nose had hints of cherry with just a bit of oakiness. The taste was well-structured with more cherry and plum with currants and just a hint of vanilla. There was a slight wateriness to it but not as much as the Petit Verdot and not enough to ruin anything for me. This was a nice wine for what it is and I like it.
