Hope everyone had a goon filled Easter Holidays and mid-semester break!
Back to reviews this week with something for those red lovers, with the De Bortoli Premium Reserve Merlot.

Price for this 2L cask is $9.99 from Dan Murphy's.
I tried this one just for a change from white wines, and it is probably one of the better tasting red wine casks I've tried. It has a pretty nice cherry taste to it, and does have a bit of an alcoholic warmth in it. Some eastern european guys at a party suggested mixing it with Coke, which I did try, and surprisingly it tastes really good! Try a 50/50 mix with it and it tastes a bit like cherry Coke if you've ever had it.
Overall if you're willing to try red wine or you're already a fan this Merlot is a good option.
Till next time...Enjoy!
