Swanson Merlot 2000 (California)

Price - $23.49 Size - 750 mL - New World Wine Tasting held on Monday July 25, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs with Will Gillum.

Medium quick legs with a deep burgundy color. Strawberry and dark cherry on the nose. Somewhat smooth wine with a little too much tannin for me. The medium length finish gets a little bitter at the end. For more information visit Swanson Vineyards website. Grade: B
