Taste Along w/ Adam the Wine Guy # 23 - Frias Merlot

Yummy..y'know Merlot got a bad rap a few years ago and sales tumbled..but the growers kept on pluggin away and the winemakers kept on making some great juice..this Frias is no flabby Merlot..its a big boy, balance with depth that a Cab. drinker would love..ive found that napa is the best place for growing merlot in california..you get such rich and round styles, that are reminiscent of their French cousins in Bordeaux, but with layers of fruit that the old world just cant compare..

Grill up a ribeye and enjoy some of this Frias 2005, Napa, Merlot
