I got some of this:

It scored well on some different websites, but I've gotta say, it's probably the worst merlot I've ever had. I'm not a big fan of merlot though.

I ended up mixing it with Sierra Mist so I could drink it. Much improved.

I'm italian, and normally before a meal with family, we have this thing called scattone,....its essentially red wine and spaghetti in a bowl, and it tastes amazing

Ha, I'm exaggerating my love for wine of course, don't stress...

but seriously, if you're a fan of wine, there is no other sav blanc to drink than those from the Marlborough region of the South Island of New Island. A-mazing.

Oh please do yourself the favor of a wonderful Vinho Verde!
Vinho Verde is a crisp (white) wine from Portugal. It has a tiny bit of bubbles, but not enough to make it like champagne. It is so refreshing, and if you get the right label it is delicious! Goes well with lighter foods, especially seafood. Serve chilled!
I usually buy Gavela vinho verde, for about 7 dollars at my grocery store.
