WineDiva's Review

Toasted, cocoa, fresh.
This Merlot was harvested from estate vineyards in Oliver and Osoyoos, was put through a malolactic (second) fermentation and matured in a mix of French, Hungarian and American (although mostly French) oak barrels (60% neutral) for about 16 months.
A plush nose delivers spice cake aromas are melded with candied plums, dried cherries, licorice, chocolate and vanilla. Less opulent than the nose, the palate leads with dusty plum and toasted spice, espresso and carob. Fine cocoa tannins linger; good substance and freshness here.
