Hester Creek Reserve Merlot 2005

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe HC "reserve" merlot is made with some of the oldest vines in the valley. The nose is highly fragrant and bright with cedar mocha red currants and dried herbs aromas and flavours. On the palate the wine is soft and ready to drink with sweet cassis and deep chocolate cherry fruit flavours. The finish is persistent. Try this with flank steak or spaghetti Bolognese.Tasted: 22 July 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
