Calona Vineyards Merlot Artist Series Reserve 2002

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSpicy, smoky, leafy dill aromas mix with peppery, roasted plum notes. Dry, round and slightly tannic on entry with peppery, smoky, tobacco and cherry flavours. Dry and lean on the finish with some gritty tannins but very sound. A solid effort and a big improvement over 2001.Tasted: 11 May 2004Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
