Tasting- Three Rivers Winery Merlot

Name: Three Rivers Winery Merlot
Variety: Merlot
Region: Columbia Valley
Country: USA
Year: 2006
Price: $10.99

Bottler Review: Created using a blend of vineyards, this Merlot opens with chocolate covered cherries and finishes with rustic cedar notes.

My Review: I tasted this wine one night when I was craving a cheap, but good, Merlot. I have to say, I was not at all let down. There were definite chocolate tones on the palate along with cherries and a hint of vegetables. I had this wine with an Alfredo pasta and it paired wonderfully. The cheesy sauce brought out more flavors that were not present in the initial tasting.

I tasted this wine with pasta.
