Gorgeous George 2005 Merlot California

With a picture of George Washington the President on label, they were going for the patriotic crowd. But with picture of "Gorgeous George" the wrestler, they could also go for the WWE/WWF crowd too. But a good effort overall, I think.

It's a clear, bright ruby-violet colored wine with some structure and a depth of color that could be described as "deep". There are some definite berry-blackberry top notes for this wine. With low tannins (read smooth or rounded here) and reasonable astringency, this wine is well suited for dinner but could also be used for sipping in a pinch. Be sure to aerate first.
