Day 52: Kimberly River 2007 Merlot California

This Merlot was a good choice because it paired pretty well with the Filet that I cooked this evening. It’s been a while since I’ve had a merlot, so I was pretty happy to give this wine a go.

Kimberly is a pretty tame merlot as far as I’m concerned. The color is a pretty deep cherry and the nose is pretty typical of a merlot. The wine itself is light-bodied with a moderately fruity flavor. In my opinion, this wine is pretty oak-y with a decent finish.

Overall, this wine was a pretty drinkable Merlot. It’s not the best I’ve had by a long shot, but I wouldn’t speak ill of it either. Kimberly: D+
