Yellow Tail Cabernet Merlot 2014

Name: Yellow Tail Cabernet Merlot 2014 
Variety: Cabernet Merlot (60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot)
Year: 2014
Country: Australia
Price: $10
Wine Critic Review: "A classic blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Medium-bodied and very approachable with soft tannins. Fruit-forward flavors of plum, cherry and blackberry are accented by notes of spice with more juicy berries on the finish." -The Vintage Cellar.
My review: This wine smelled peppery and a bit spicy.  The taste was actually a little surprising.  I tasted dried fruit, raisins, and plums.  The after taste was as if I just ate a juicy berry.  I did not like this wine that much, but I did like it more than most Merlot wines I have tried.

This wine was not consumed with food.
