Nk'Mip Cellars Qwam Qwmt Merlot 2002
Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBig smoky oak, spicy, peppery, clove, black cherry aromas with some resiny orange peel notes. Dry, tannic and somewhat hard on the palate with spicy, smoky oak, clove pepper and black cherry flavours. Dry, tight and a bit hollow, needs a few years to fill out but aging we would like less extraction, more fruit and more silky textures.Tasted: 04 November 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $24.99 | 750ml | VQA Wine Stores; Private Wine Shops |
