Looking for info

I received as a present from a friend in US this wine:

kendall jackson Merlot Gran Reserve 2003

Any comment? To be cellared or drank?

Thanks.

Francesco

Kendall Jackson is mass produced, generic quality. The merlot is not for a refined palate accustomed to Right Bank Bordeaux.

This wine is released ready to drink and it will not age. It is probably close to expired. Open soon.

I will be drinking it in the coming days.

From the K-J website, this is their second level of four levels, but they don't have a Merlot in their top level wines. It has won some awards. Post a WTN when you can.

I'll do so. It would be my first WTN in a very long while !
