WineDiva's Review

Savoury, restrained, distinct.
The Hidden Valley Vineyard Merlot is distinctly different from this one, which is much more savoury. The site is located on a sun-drenched bench just approaching Naramata.
Herbal notes lead the charge here alongside cedar chips and tangy red berries, tobacco, bittersweet chocolate and baking spices. The palate is restrained and tightly woven; dusty red fruits and spice are the focus. Expect notable acidity with textural tannins, which add chew.
