Second Chance Merlot 2005: Wine of the Week 6/24/08
Second Chance Merlot 2005
$9.99S Aisle 6A

This wine has a lot of really great key components that make it a no brainer to pick up today. First its a softer Merlot, the tannins are rather low for its young age and the big juicy ripe fruit really is on point. Second its from Paso Robles, California which is a masterful location for Bordeaux varietals like Cabernet, Merlot and spicy Zinfandel. Third the vintage, it is not a bad thing at all to be backed by the 2005 vintage. The world is filled right now by wine champs from this super hero vintage. Finally fourth is the price, $9.99. I think that’s enough said.
Food: Grilled steaks, bbq chicken or the classic cheese burger.
Cheers,
Danny Gold
