Herder Merlot Bellamy Vineyards 2004
Keremeos, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMeaty, tomato leaf, smoky, leather, vanilla, coriander, chocolate, tobacco aromas. Rich, ripe, round, supple palate with some grainy tannins. Big espresso, chocolate, vanilla, cherry, tobacco, tomato leaf, spicy, cranberry flavours. Big oak finish. Nicely balanced even with some of the green characters. Should improve over the next few years. Should be at its best with grilled meats.Tasted: 07 February 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $24.90 | 750ml | speculative listing - Landmark Selections |
