A tasty merlot from Lost Oak Winery of Texas. It's there Double Diamond Merlot! Give it a try when you get the chance.
A web log started by two Wine Enthusiasts, synonym for "Winos". Its intent is to log our thoughts and opinions about inexpensive wines available at local grocery and beverage stores. Our hope is to prevent other "Winos" from making the same mistakes we made with our wine purchases.

Llano Estacado Signature Red Meritage
This one is a blended wine that mixes Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and a Cabernet Franc. It comes from Llano Estacado Winery and is called their Signature Red Meritage. This one gets a Bad Rating as both Winos agreed not to purchase it again. Too much going on with the different wines, ending in an after taste that neither Winos liked. Oh well, will have to move on to other wines.
