•The Vintage Cellar says: "Our 'Wineworks Purple,' the Merlot|Malbec is a fresh and invigorating pick. Full of luscious, bright fruits on the palate and a clean finish. This is a perfect wine to transition the seasons--with enough tannin to stand up to hearty Winter soups and a delicate complexity that will not overpower fresh Spring and Summer meals."
• It has a very strong fruity smell. It tastes almost bland. The taste isn't as apparent as it was in the other wines. I detected a blackberry or maybe raspberry flavor at the end. It had a very dry aftertaste.
•I did not have this with food.I imagine it pairing well with a pasta with a meaty sauce.
