Tannic and more dry than i thought it would be. Astringent. Stems and seeds. Tart, hardly any berry action which is surprsing considering mass market. 80, and that is prbly generous.

Not a whole lot going on here, don't get that much taste out of this wine. I've had bottles for half the price that taste better.
An interesting side note ... I researched this wine on the winery's website prior to my review, just to make sure I had the name correct. Turns out, Turning Leaf doesn't even make a non-reserve of their merlot. I feel this is highly illegit and deceptive to label their ONLY merlot a "Reserve".
