Seven Stones Speaking Row 128 Merlot 2011
Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSmoky olive, herb, tobacco, peppery, black cherry, aromas flecked with coffee and notes of ash. Smooth, round, fresh, elegant palate with black olive, smoky herb, chocolate, cherry, tobacco, cedar, vanilla and prune flavours. Good texture and balance but showing just a bit too much oak in the back end. Give this some time to better integrate. Try it with a grilled steak.Tasted: 03 April 2015Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Saffire Wines |
