They must put all the good Merlot juice in the Montiano! Decently structured and varietally correct if a bit rough around the edges, paid $15 should have been $10

One of the best Merlots I've ever had. I break out this wine every time I want impress someone. I call it the Italian stallion. Robust red fruit flavors. Black berry, plum, dark current, tabacco leave, and coca.

2012. Dark burgundy. Dry not fruity, with some oak and tannins, and a medium finish. An Italian wine.
