Firestone Merlot 2005 offers intense aromas of plum, chocolate and caramel spice. The plum note continues on the palate, along with flavors of black cherry, dark coffee and mocha. Accents of toasty oak emerge on a deep, integrated finish.

Tobin’s Review 2 out of 5
Firestone’s Merlot 2005 has a nice fruity aroma, but the wine is actually bitter. It is heavy and oaky which is not what I like in my Merlots.

Jeanine’s Review 2 out of 5
Firestone’s Merlot 2005 has overpowering oakiness. It is not very fruity and I do not like this wine.
