I think the Turning Leaf wines are released at about 1% RS, so they're going to have a bit more sweetness than regular Merlots that are under .5%. Kendall Jackson's VR Chard is like that, too. However, they get their sweetness by adding a bit of unfermented juice to the finished wine to boost the sweetness some. The aim of both is to hit those first time, occasional or novice wine drinkers who aren't ready for really dry wines. Many people get so used to that type of wine, they don't explore past them and are missing some really wonderful wines. The KJ Chard is such a big seller we just got in another two pallets (that's 112 cases) and we expect it to last maybe four or five weeks.
