It comes in at 13.3% alcohol. One of the nicer inexpensive reds, this is textured and fruity at the same time. It has some ripe tannins for support, although structure is not its strongest suit. Rather, the mid-palate finesse and refinement are its best features. The fruit is tasty and the whole seems a little on the sophisticated side. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis wine in fact is well balanced with flavors of plum and liquorice and a mineral finish. All supported by a smooth tannin. Earthy and velvety at the same time, typical qualities of good Merlot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"skurnik","offers":[{"title":"1 \/ 750 ml","offer_id":41174788341865,"sku":"US-OBY-02-19","price":22.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1780\/9427\/files\/Merlot-Great-Blue-Heron-Onabay-Vineyards-2019.jpg?v=1746091347","url":"https:\/\/winechateau.com\/products\/merlot-great-blue-heron-onabay-vineyards-2019","provider":"Wine Chateau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
