Sutter Home Merlot

Sutter Home Merlot
California 2012

This week I felt like trying another dry wine and chose a modestly priced one I found at the grocery store. It had a deep dark red wine color with a berry smell. I enjoyed this wine and had it at dinner with a burger and a pasta with a garlic butter sauce. I felt this wine tasted very well with the burger, and the pasta offered a different kind of taste. This was worth the purchase, but it didn't offer much to anything extra for a Merlot. Also, it didn't have an overwhelming fruity flavor, but the blackberry and cherry taste was pretty powerful. I probably won't try this wine again in the future. I may have to raise my price range to find a more exciting wine.
