a wine recommendation: J.W. Morris Merlot 2005

Had an excellent drinking/dinner wine this evening; thought I'd pass along the recommendation.

J.W. Morris, Merlot, (California); 2005 vintage

---
I saw one review online that really panned the 2004 Merlot, and complained of an "aftertaste"; my experience (with the 2005) was quite the opposite, as I found the wine to be mild and pleasant. A quick search online lead to other amateur reviewers with a few negative reviews, so I thought I should throw in my opinion/recommendation for this "bargain wine." Grab some if you find it! (Try Trader Joes if you're in California.)

Caveat/disclaimer: As with all wines (but esp. with mass produced or 'discount' wines), one never knows if they were able to maintain a consistent vintage, or if the bottling/corking process was consistent. Your experience may vary. (But I think you have good odds.)
