I just had some Italian wine, heavy as crude oil, and I say - NO to Merlot!
Follow Ups:
any wine lover who appreciates strength and sublety---and the skill to bring them together.
hooray for cabernet!
Actually, there's a terrific Chilean merlot under the Santa Rita label. Also Vendange.
My girlfriend's brother is a Buchananite, and he recommends both.
Merlot--It's not just for Liberals anymore!
Merlot goes well with some food, but I still don't know why I'd pay twice as much for a Petrus as a Margaux (given similar vintages). Irrational - yep, your right, it must be a liberal thing!
And for tonight? Anything with "methode champenoise" on the bottle, thankyouverymuch!
In Vino Veritas
I need the substance and well, body, you know... Although I have had some Merlot what was HEAVY and full-bodied... of course it also cost a lot, so maybe next year, with better economy!BTW - it was Shiraz last year too.
