Diversion NV Merlot, Washington, $15
By Great Northwest Wine on May 4, 2013
Best Buy! This delicious Merlot includes a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah and is made by winemaker Josh Maloney and his crew at Wahluke Wine Co. in Mattawa, Wash. This opens with aromas of pink peppercorn, vanilla bean, black walnut and spice, followed by flavors of dark cherry, black raspberry and blueberry syrup. It’s a hedonistic red that is smooth throughout and darned yummy.
Rating: Outstanding!
Production: 5,000 cases
Alcohol: 13.5%
