The Little Penguin 2005 Merlot

I'm not usually a fan of Merlot, preferring Shiraz or Syrah, but I found this to be a very tasty wine, easy to drink with a nice hearty dinner, or on its own.

Not the best wine ever, but nowhere near as far from it as I'd thought. Probably the best bang for the buck I've found yet! Nice tannins, beautiful fruit notes. I'm not a Merlot fan, but I liked this one.

I like this wine. I like it a lot more after its been open for a couple hours. For me, its a little hot right when you pop the cork, but after 5 hours or so (for me) loses some heat, and tastes a lot better.

Tasty but sweet. More of a wine cocktail. A fun beverage, but not a very serious Merlot.

A very light bodied merlot that was much sweeter than I usually enjoy. It is very easy to drink but not a whole more to it than that.

Not bad, but nothing that really blew me away. It was a very simple merlot. The second and third day with the wine proved it to have very little flavor.

Strong cherry and a hint of rubbing alcohol on the nose. Sweet berry and dark chocolate flavors that come across a little strong. Very good when paired with a good creamy cheese.
