Tasting - "Yellow Tail Reserve Merlot 2010"

Name: Yellow Tail Reserve Merlot
Variety: Merlot
Region: South Eastern
Country: Australia
Year: 2010
Price: $12 Regular, $6.95 Sale
Wine Critic Review (Provided by Vintage Cellar)Round, velvety and mouthfilling, this is a satisfying Merlot at a bargain price. Aromas of black cherries and herbs fold in hints of cinnamon and mocha, while the flavors are generally fruity, but with a slightly tomatoey note. Soft on the finish. Drink now.
My Review: The scent reminded me of blackberries. I couldn't taste much and it was on the bitter side for me. I disagree with the critic that it was soft on the finish--I thought it had a hard finish. I wouldn't drink this wine again.
With Food: No
