The light ruby-colored 1993 Merlot exhibits soft, Gamay-like flavors, and a round, easy-going finish. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. Volk's red wine offerings are good, although they are not of the same quality level as the whites. However, they represent reasonably good values.Tel. (805) 434-2541; Fax (805) 434-3516
