ARTIST WINES! - Uncorking musician-priced cellar secrets

JP. Chenet Merlot, Languedoc-Roussillon, France 2016

Price: $12.99 SBH Rating: 🍒🎵 🌸 🎶❄️🎵🍷🍌

Slightly minty on the nose. Or maybe that's just the frigid snowy "spring" air gusting in through the cracks in the windows.

Cherries, berries, and a hint of tasty dirty make this a perfectly adequate wine. Good for sipping while you try to convince your friend that Yes! He Should date that violist! This softer merlot makes your arguments persuasive, whereas, to be honest, a cab sav might cause you to sound suspiciously overzealous.

♫ Drink with: "Banana Banjo" from The Crow
