GOLD MEDAL - TASTERS GUILD: Sweet and sassy. Delicious cherry, licorice, pitch. Sweet and succulent aroma./ Oh, boy! Is this ever sweet and smooth and fruity! Rich and vanilla-coated. Milk chocolate. Like those cherry cordial candies. I can see the gold. 91/100.

NW-1734. 06 DONA SOL MERLOT CA
Sweet fruited but also dark fruited. Cherry and licorice./ Boy, the cherry flavor is great! Better and more intense than the nose. Cool and coastally inclined. Keeps this series running in high gear. The group thought this an excellent value, as they did the 05 last year. 88/100.
How Many bottles/singles: 4.99 each

NW-1735. 08 FETZER MERLOT CA
Sweet and sassy. Lots of oak spice, cigar box, and vanilla. In the beginning, this covers up the fruit. But the fruit will not be denied, breaking out into sweet merlot cherry goodness. The whole presentation is awfully naughty./ Yes, sweet, sexy cherry and oak spice flavors. Layers them on, lays them on thick. Wow! Long, sweet, spicy aftertaste. Best Fetzer merlot yet, and quite a contrast from the sullen nature of many a young 08 California red. Someone brought a briny pecorino cheese. Salt calls for sweet in my book, and this wine worked well with it. 91/100.

NW-1753. 05 BERINGER THIRD CENTURY MERLOT NC
Food & Wine - CLASSIC: 'Succeeds mightily in showcasing this all-too-often immodest grape's charms, channeling its near-term pleasures in a number of unexpectedly delicious ways. With a tannic structure framed more sturdily than that of most of its peers, this North Coast offering manages to taste fruity and ripe without compromising its sophisticated 'I'm for grown-ups' style. Elegant from start to finish, it wouldn't be embarrassed by Napa and Sonoma cousins costing much, much more.'

How Many bottles/singles: 14.99 each

NW-1755. 07 MOUNTAIN VIEW MERLOT LC
Considerable oak complications here. They’ve done a good job of it. The fruit has that nice Lake openness, approachability./ Dark for Lake. Quite a bit of tannin. Oak and fruit tannin. Ambitious wine. I don’t see many aging candidates at this price. Well done. 90+/100.
How Many bottles/singles: 9.99 each

Jorge: Red fruits, plums, some vanillin. I like the style because it is not very showy./ Good acidity, some tannins–still has a bite. Needs a little more time to soften. Not your typical Kendall-Jackson house style. 90/100.

NW-1788. 04 LUNA MERLOT NV
Connoisseurs’ Guide 93 - TWO ROSETTES: ‘Never anything less than wonderfully fruity, it exhibits extraordinary richness and depth. It is all Merlot in its supple tactile impressions, and yet it shows a nice spine of supporting tannin that brings just the right bit of back-palate grip. There is not let up in either richness or ripe-cherry fruit in its lingering finish, and it promises to keep nicely for up to a half-dozen years providing that its considerable short-term temptations can be overlooked.’

NW-1790. 06 MERRYVALE STARMONT MERLOT NV
Deep, dark, and rich. Fresh raspberry, raspberry jam, licorice. High toned. Less contrite than a lot of past Merryvale reds. Maybe the vintage and aeration time have amplified the softness, approachability. Most pleasant Starmont merlot I’ve had. 91/100.
