Tasting Wilson Daniels Merlot




Name: Wilson Daniels
Variety: Merlot
Region: Central Coast, California
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: $7.95
The Vintage Cellar Review: Made predominantly from Paso Robles grapes, the wine is full-bodied and silky yet robust, with aromas of black cherry and plum and a palate of blackberry, raspberry and blueberry jam laced with vanilla and toast. 
My Review: This has more aroma than the other two wines I tried today, but it’s very hard to put my finger on what exactly those smells are.  Maybe some vanilla, flowers, fruits, jelly, and delicate flowers like honeysuckles.  I’m a little surprised by the delicate fragile taste because of the complex smell.  The flavor is pretty simple, it’s oaky and dry yet pleasant.
