Fruit-forward wine with a delicate vanilla note, but the oak influence is barely perceptible. Overall, a very contenting experience. The wine's characteristics are intriguing, but it doesn't quite live up to the expectations of a Merlot. When shared with friends, it's a crowd-pleaser, but they may not fully grasp its nuances. The wine's smooth linger is a delightful surprise.

I had the opportunity to try this wine, but unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to evaluate it. Given its location in The Paso Robles region, I would have likely been interested in a Merlot, but unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. As a result, I'll be rating it as average.

Rich, full-bodied wine with a deep, opaque colour and a nuanced nose of dark berries, oak, vanilla, and spices. in contrast it may not be a especially supple wine, its well-balanced flavour profile and comforting opening nose make it a satisfying drink. Overall, it's a well-structured and fulfilling wine.

Liberty School Merlot receives praise for its full-bodied richness, fruit-forward profile with dark berries and plum notes, and smooth, well-balanced finish. While some find oak influences subtle and appreciate its value, others note it doesn't fully meet Merlot expectations. Reviews highlight velvety textures, vanilla accents, and food versatility, though a minority consider it average.
Liberty School Merlot is a delightful red wine that showcases the classic characteristics of the Merlot grape variety. On the nose, this Merlot offers enticing aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, accompanied by subtle hints of vanilla and oak. These aromas continue to unfold on the palate, where the wine displays a rich and luscious fruit profile. The flavors of dark berries are complemented by notes of chocolate, spice, and a touch of forest floor, adding complexity and depth to the overall taste. The tannins in Liberty School Merlot are well-integrated, providing a balanced structure and a silky mouthfeel. The wine has a medium to full body, with a lingering finish that leaves a pleasant impression. This Merlot pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including roasted meats, grilled vegetables, and hearty pasta dishes. Its versatility and approachability make it a great choice for both casual gatherings and more formal occasions.
