2006 Sebastiani Merlot Sonoma

A subtle, and pleasant Merlot from a producer that consistently delivers good wines for the money. This bottle for only $8.99 at Costco is a no brainer since I can't think of many more California Merlots that I enjoyed more for under $10.

Starts with a nice inviting, spicy nose, then dark fruit flavors, incredibly smooth, nothing over the top; medium in body; finishes (maybe a little quick) with a little more spice.  A well rounded wine at this price and extremely versatile for food pairing. 

An easy pick for our Value List, and a nice bottle overall.  This one might surprise you.
