Great balance and easy to drink after it has opened up a bit.

Had a mispairing of this wine with rosemary chicken. It's good. Needs a much better pairing like a prime rib or red meat for certain. Chicken was awesome however.

A little bit tangy. A nice table wine but a little lacking on the finish. Not too tart, well rounded and smooth.

Mellow, fruity, but fragrant.

My back is so sore
I can't work much more
I can't get my traction
The ground's too wet
I take a ten minute break and drink this wine. David Wilcox had it better than this wine.

The Sterling Merlot never disappoints. Rich and full. Great with steak.

I really enjoyed this one. A solid complex nose. Some blackberry fruit and a deep finish.
