What I’ve Waited For!
It has been so long since I had a Merlot, probably since I started drinking reds. This one has put Merlot on my list of favorites! So smooth, just the right wine to sip after a long work day.

Silky Smooth
I am a big Merlot lover and this one blew me away! It's light, and fruit forward and so smooth. We had it with Eggplant Parmesan and the pairing was simply amazing. Personally I love this one all by itself, great to sip on by the fire pit while relaxing in the backyard. I will definitely be stocking up on this wine.

Phenomenal!
I'm not usually a huge Merlot fan but this wine is phenomenal! It is so smooth and flavorful! The bottle was 'accidently' polished off the day our family opened it.

I guess I do like Merlot!
I am falling in love with wines from WA State! Woodvale Estates is my new go to wine. It has tons of flavor! Lots of fruit and oh soo smooth, with a special something.

Not your typical Merlot
I was pleasantly surprised by this bottle of wine! It's light, the tannins aren't too overwhelming, and fruit forward. I tried it with dark chocolate but honestly liked it better all on it's own. Definitely will be stocking up on this one!
Stephanie
Smooth and Delicious!
Woodvale Estates really surprised both me and my husband. The tannins weren't overwhelming (I really like to aerate), and the flavors were deep and luscious. The black plum flavors really came through. This was fantastic paired with meatballs and spaghetti.

Perfect
This Merlot is velvety smooth with a little hint of smoke. Perfect for any meat pairing, from steak to burgers to brats. It’s also amazing with Girl Scout Samoa’s
