In this episode, Shelley and Phil taste through two well priced Washington Merlot’s in honor of International Merlot Day, which is this Sunday, November 7. Both of these wines were picked up at Fred Meyer for under 20 bucks each and deliver above their price point. Despite what they said in the movie, Sideways, Merlot is a fabulous varietal and these two exceed expectations. #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing
