WineDiva's Review

Textural, elegant, complex.
Painted Rock's estate grown 2012 Merlot was aged 18 months in 50% new French oak.
Plums and sweet currents spill out of the glass followed by mixed briary berries, chocolate, vanilla liqueur and pipe tobacco. It is wonderfully fresh with an incredible textural component. Youthful still, but elegant with a tightly wound finish that will reward you in the upcoming 1-5 years.

Who is Wine Diva?
WineDiva is my alter ego. She wears a cork tiara and is proof that a girl can have her w(h)ine and drink it too! WineDiva.ca is a tongue-in-cheek approach to my very serious passion for all things wine. It is my goal to make wine fun, to make this website subtly educational & deviously inspirational. Vintage reciting wine snobs beware, this WineDiva is painting the wine world pink and making it her own! Care to join me?
