2008 Clos Saint-Georges Vin de Pays d'Oc Merlot

The warm weather of spring and summer calls for easy-to-drink, fruity red wines like this lovely quaffer from Clos Saint-Georges. The charm of this 100% Merlot sourced from the Vin de Pays d'Oc region of France near the Mediterranean coast is hard resist, starting with its abundant aromas of red berries, ground white pepper, and sweet tobacco. The bright, fleshy palate is driven by juicy plum and lush cherry flavors kissed by a velvety, effortless tannin, which makes this festive red one of the more versatile and delightful wines you will ever drink.
