Petit Bistro 2005 Merlot FranceSubmitted by bob.bacchus on Thu, 2008-08-14 00:00.Not spectacular by any means.... Although its got a clear, bright violet color and there's some nice berry notes to this one, there isn't much else. It has a decidedly "washed out" taste. There are no real off-notes and the balance, acidity and finish are OK, but what this wine needs is a bit more intensity. Strictly a dinner wine. Better sipping choices might be the Corq Dorq 2004 or the Canyon Oaks 2005. A synthetic cork. Grade: C Price: $10 Petit Bistro 2005 Merlot France Reply |
