2020 Merlot
Jan.29.2023 Today I tried a 2020 Merlot from J.LOHR. This wine is from Paso Robles, CA in the United States. Paso Robles is in central California near the coast of the pacific known for its hot weather. The price of this wine is $20 and I bought it from a local convenience store in Blacksburg. The smell of the wine was dark and rose. The wine could in a way smell close to black cherries or blackberry(pg 173 of Wine Folly). In the taste of this wine there was a deep rose, fruity and oak flavor. Overall this wine made a good dark red and in the future would blend well with slices of parmesan or another salty cheese.
