The 2016 Tenor Merlot is wonderful. It has a light smoked berry flavor.

This Merlot is bright on the nose. It has the perfect smooth start with a dry finish. It draws the taste to the roof of your mouth, leaving a lingering sweetness.

if you don’t think you like Merlot but wish you did, try the Tenor Merlot. The Merlot-ness is subtle and I think it’s quite a smooth, lighter-bodied Merlot. The tannins that come at the finish would do well to be balanced with some food but they are not so overpowering to prevent you from enjoying it by itself.

Nose bursts with fragrant ripe berries. Just enough to entice you into wanting it to delve into the glass. Lovely carry-through on the pallet. True perfection in this 2016!

Newly released by Tenor, there are merlot wines and then there is this one! It is rich with black fruits and ready to drink today. However it will age beautifully and would be special to add to your cellar.

Love this vintage - excellent Merlot. Tobacco on the nose and great red fruit flavors.

This is a superb example of an old world Tuscan style Merlot. Incredibly complex nose. Hints of black pepper, smoldering campfire. Beautiful lush berry mouthfeel. Will age and become even better.

You will notice the deep rich color of this wine as soon as it is poured into your glass. Great pairing with ribs on the BBQ
