Red Diamond Merlot 08

Red Diamond Merlot 08 -

A great value from a new winery, part of the Ste Michelle group. Elsewhere on the web, it's $14 a bottle - this is the exact same wine, we don't know why the huge price elsewhere online.

From the winery: "The line in the sand has been drawn, and the challenge is on - you can't beat this Merlot at this price. Soft, fruity, easy to drink, with the right amount of oak, this wine will win you over with just one glass. The Cabernet Sauvignon adds complexity and the Cabernet Franc softens the tannins and adds dimension to the fruity character. The wine is great on its own, but with its balanced acidity and intense fruit concentration, it is also a great companion to food. Try it with beef, lamb or grilled salmon."
