The combination of oak, plum, and cherry is a balanced blend of earthy, fruity, and slightly sweet notes.

Rich, gentle Merlot with a sophisticated flavor profile that displays the integration of oak and chocolate notes. However, the overpowering presence of oak and chocolate on the flavor may overwhelm some palates, specifically those who prefer a lighter, more fruit-forward taste experience.

Smooth, fruity, and blackberry-dominated wine with a plush touch

What the web is saying

McManis Merlot is praised for its rich, full-bodied profile with flavors of blackberry, plum, and cherry, often complemented by oak and vanilla notes. Some find it smooth and velvety, while others feel the oak can be overpowering. It's versatile, pairing well with various cuisines, and offers good value. However, a few reviews mention a lack of distinctiveness and complexity.

Voss Experts3.8

Aromas of soft, ripe plum and blackberry are complemented by hints of cocoa and spice in this full-bodied McManis Merlot. The palate is full of juicy fruit, with a smooth, velvety texture and a lingering, pleasantly spicy finish. An excellent choice for pairing with grilled meats or a cheese plate.
