Calliope Merlot - Cabernet Sauvignon 2002

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPeppery, resiny, smoky oak, black olive, earthy aromas with a touch of cassis. Dry, round, moderately elegant style with very smoky oak vanilla, cedar, earthy, resiny, cassis flavours and a very dry, somewhat acidic finish. Almost ripe but lacks a bit of mid-palate concentration and fruit to really sing. Solid and improving.Tasted: 17 September 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
