Tasting- Karen Birmingham Clarksburg Merlot 2020


Name: Karen Birmingham Clarksburg Merlot 2020
Variety: Merlot
Region: Clarksburg
Country: USA
Year: 2020
Price: $16.99

Winery Review: smoky, earthy  with plum and vanilla notes. A rating of 3.6/ 5. Has a strong flavor.

Wine Folly: Merlot pg 131-132. Merlot has notes of cherry, plum, dark chocolate, dried herbs, and vanilla. It is not very sweet. 
 

My Review: Smells very sweet. It was a very strong wine with fruit. I tasted cherries. It surprised me at first because it was strong and the flavor hit me like a brick. It made me cough. I drank this with bread.
