CedarCreek Estate Select Meritage 2006

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSoft open, vanilla, cocoa and black fruit flavours. Lovely restraint on the mid-palate with fine wood integration and toast. Lively vibrant acidity with fresh cranberry, liquorice and black fruit flavours. Typically this wine comes with a lean frame that pervades from back to front in essence working the finesse angle as opposed to so many south Okanagan reds that work the fat, smoky fruit and oak angle. Should be even better in five years. Well done. Serve with roast lamb or beef.Tasted: 27 April 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
