Tasting - Omo Ze Bel Merlot 2011



Name: Omo Ze Bel
Variety: Merlot
Region: Sicilia
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: This bright, soft Merlot comes from a hilly vineyard on the Alcesti family estate in beautiful Sicily. It has hints of red cherries and freshly cut hay.  Exceptional value.


My Review: This merlot had a slight cherry nose to it, but quite a bland and light palate with barely any tannins. I like red wines and especially merlots, but this wine didn't cut it. The El Sierro was a far better red wine than this one.

I did not have this wine with food.
