Shop Review:
Our “Wineworks Purple,” the Merlot/Malbec is a fresh and invigorating pick. Full of luscious, bright fruits on the palate and a clean finish. This is a perfect wine to transition the seasons– with enough tannin to stand up to hearty Winter soups and a delicate complexity that will not overpower fresh Spring and Summer meals.
My Review:
I found this wine to be what I would expect from a Merlot/Malbec blend. On the nose there was a typical red fruit smell, with a little herb thrown in on top. On the palate there was a very obvious earthy note. Overall a good wine, but nothing that stuck out among the rest.
