"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.
