Barefoot Wine
When in doubt, you can never go wrong with good old Merlot, well almost never, but luckily, I was not wrong about my cheap wine shopping trip and this bottle of Barefoot Merlot, 2/$10.

Pretty much, it was everything a good Merlot should be, fruity and a little smoky, but not overly strong. Hey, and of course, I love a cool wine label as well.

Here are some notes from the Barefoot Wine web site:

Wine Description & Tasting Notes:
Barefoot Merlot is a luscious wine with alluring flavors of boysenberry and chocolate. Hints of aniselinks and subtle tannins complement the decadent, silky finish.

Medals & Accolades:
GOLD Medal, 95 POINTS...California State Fair Wine Competition, Sacramento, CA
GOLD Medal...American Wine Society Commerical Wine Competition, State College, PA
GOLD Medal...Amenti del Vino - The Wine Society International Wine Competition, Mystic, CT
GOLD Medal...Atlanta International Wine Challenge, Atlanta, GA

"Soft nose with nice berry, raspberry, blackberry, plum and some smoky oak and floral notes. The moderate intensity palate is smooth and clean and mostly red raspberry, plum and cherry with some light tannin before a medium length, fruity finish... well done and a great bargain."...The Colorado Wine News
