Spinelli 2007 Merlot (Terre di Chieti)

  • Best Buy
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $8
There’s a pungent note here of overripe fruit or mature strawberry that takes away from the overall harmony and elegance of the wine. Instead, this is a workhorse Merlot with soft, chewy tannins and a thick mouthfeel that could match lamb in spinach curry sauce.  — M.L.  (9/1/2009)
