Sandhill Merlot Sandhill Estate Vineyard 2008
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA bit of a throwback to older times for Sandhill showing quite a lifted, aromatic, herbaceous spicy, black cherry and tobacco nose. The palate is dry with smoky, resiny herbal fruit flavours that don't quite jive with its high alcohol finish. Best with grilled meat.Tasted: 03 January 2011Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | specialty listing, vqa and private wine shops |
