Perseus Select Lots Merlot 2011
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBlind Creek Vineyards in the Similkameen Valley is home to this merlot fruit. The dark fruit flavours are stony, mineral and persistent but the wood takes over and dries out the finish. It's young and will need sometime but the winemaking is heavy handed. Eat this with grilled or braised beef dishes for best results.Tasted: 10 November 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $22.00 | 750ml | winery direct or private wine stores |
