Great Merlot. Nice aroma, smooth, rich dark fruit flavors, nice mouthfeel. Goes well with anything you would pair a medium-full-bodied red with.

Bought a bunch of merlots from Wine Insiders - the Monte Serena 2018 was quite good. I was worried that it's age, from 2018, might be a problem but this was better than just fine. We had it with a meal of chicken and roasted vegetables. Definitely would buy again.

I had high hopes for this Merlot. On the pour, swirl, and sniff, there were clear notes of cherry and other berries. However, for me, it lacked body and smoothness. It was thin and very acidic on the tongue and especially on the finish. I prefer Merlots that are jammy, rich, smooth, but not sweet. If you like a thin (light) favor profile with high acidity, this one is for you. I will not purchase again.

This is a great Merlot. Very smooth, rich dark fruit flavors. Goes well with most anything. Will definitely order again!!!
