Summerhill Pyramid Winery Platinum Series Merlot 2005
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaIntense aromatic coffee, cedar resin nose with a dusting of vanilla black fruit. The 100 per cent organic grapes, aged in French oak barrels, come off a vineyard Kaleden just south of Penticton. The palate is heavy with bitter, herbal earthy flavours that finish warm and sour. Disappointing for the price.Tasted: 14 April 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $45.00 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA and private wine shops |
