Winemaker’s Notes:
This wine possesses a delicate black current nose. The initial flavour is of rich coffee beans. This is promptly followed by a burst of summer berries making this quite a fruit forward red. Anise is followed by a lasting vanilla finish.
Price: 750 mL $13

Overall Impression ....



I think I may have said this before …. “I haven’t come across a CREW wine that I didn’t like”. The Merlot Sauvignon 2006 did not let me down. This is a big red wine with a full body taste. The tannens and oak barrel taste are singing a rapsody in this wine.
This wine has a deep red, purple colour. The nose is black current and the taste is oh so good … first impression was the oaky taste that I enjoy in big reds. This was quickly followed by sweet cherry taste.
At $13 a bottle you just can’t find a better price. I have tried wines double this price that were not nearly as good.
I BBQ’ed some nice two inch thick juicy NY strip steaks for dinner to pair with this wine. This really worked out to be a nice pairing.
I agree. This is a very good red wine.
