I got this bottle of Merlot from Mark & Eva for my birthday. It is so good, the best Merlot we have ever had. I like Merlot strictly when paired with the right foods. This Merlot is drinkable by itself! WOW, it is yummy!
Last night I made hamburgers and all the fixings. All I mix in the beef is soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, an egg and garlic and pepper. I caramelized some onions and sauteed some mushrooms. This made for the perfect burger to pair with the Merlot. We also had a fresh green salad with Parmesan and pinenuts. The whole ensemble was amazing! Andy & I have never opened a bottle of wine and emptied it all in one night but you know how the saying goes...'there's a first time for everything'!!! CHEERS!

I like it a lot, too. I was thinking of stopping by their tasting room today to buy up some more. It's a winner!
I am so glad you like it so much! I really enjoy Balboa's wines and hope to share more with you in the future!
