Wine-o: Fat Monk Merlot

Fat Monk Merlot 2009, Central Coast CA
14.5% Alcohol



Described by winespectator.com as 
Soft and juicy if a bit generic, offering cherry and spicy vanilla flavors. Drink now. 3,000 cases made. –TF
Freya's Score: 8
This is a great tasting wine.  Full bodied and with a great round flavor.  Goes great with steak.  The flavors are more subtle, not spicy like a Zinfandel or some Shiraz.

Cost: ~ $10 in Southern Missouri, bought from the Macadoodle's location in Pineville, MO.  This is a great deal if you purchase it with the fantastic Macadoodle's case of wine deal.  They have a discount section that provides cases of wine perfect for any party, event, or just a personal favorite that must always be handy.

Don't forget to try out the Macadoodle's new e-commerce store, have wine and other goodies delivered to you (alcohol shipping rulings differ by state).
