Don't Call It a Comeback - Merlot Gettin' Some Props...

We have been guilty of playing into the anti-Merlot movement over the years. Not because of the 'Sideways' hangover but because a lot of the Merlot we tried earlier in the 2000's just wasn't that good or memorable. So, like many others, we took a break to let things settle. Rightly or wrongly that break extended over more than a couple of years. But, coming to our senses and reaffirming that variety truly is the spice of life, Merlot is back baby, as evidenced by the Video below. Give it a watch it is funny. Never tried the wine but the marketing is spot on.  Plus, it is fun to say...Gundlach Bundschu, Gundlach Bundschu, Gundlach Bundschu.

P.S. - Org de Rac Merlot still on top for Wine of the Year and it is mid-March. Who knows......

Keep on drinking (and try some Merlot for heaven's sake)!
