Not bad for a $3 bottle of wine. Used it to make a Merlot sauce for Chateaubriand and enjoyed some with dinner.

Store: Whole Foods
Price: $2.50

Appearance:Clear medium plus ruby.

Nose: Clean, pronounced dark berry, green peppercorn, green bell pepper.

Palate: Dry, medium acidity and tannin, medium-minus body. Flavors of Dark berries, and baking spices.

Short finish.

Conclusion: For $2.50, this is a very good Merlot.

Conclusion: Commentary: If you can only afford to spend $2.50 on a bottle of wine, you can do a whole lot worse. Has my support for a wine in the under $5 category. Props for easy removed synthetic cork, and light weight glass. ABV is a mere 12.5%, which I believe is why this wine is successful.

Not bad but not much to it. No dryness, smooth to a fault.

Whole Foods version of Charles Shah but not as good. Too fruity toward and weak finish.
