Wandering Cellars Merlot 2019 Review
This wine will teach you not to sleep on California’s Lodi AVA. The nose has concentrated fruit with a touch of balsamic. Complex notes of Baker's chocolate and blueberries fill the palate. It has a very balanced fruit depth and great acidity that lifts the fruit.
