Is Merlot a good wine?
What reviewers say
“Abriendo este Merlot 2018 en 2024. No me esperaría más para abrir esta añada. En copa bonito, buena densidad y color rubí, empezando a mostrar algo de dorado en las orillas. Limpio y brillante. Primera nariz agradable de alcohol y frutos rojos inmaduros.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Deep purple in colour, this Merlot showcases intense fruit aromas, where red plums and ripen raspberries stand out and mix with delicate hints of fresh herbs. It is a medium bodied wine, with soft tannins and black plum flavours, which are enriched with some mocha touches. In the palate, it feels round and it has a soft and pleasant end. Ideal to be enjoyed in its youth, but also has the structure to be cellared for 2 to 4 years.
Cousiño-Macul Merlot is a red from Maipo Valley, Chile. The cheapest 750 ml listing found for it is $17.95, which puts the bottle in the $15–30 band.
