Thornhaven Merlot 2013
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaGamey, tobacco, vanilla, barnyard aromas. The attack is very dry with a round but somewhat light palate and dry tannins grabbing your tongue at the back end. Too much oak and smoke dominates a small amount of fruit flecked with tobacco, leather and resin, leafy flavours. This needs a big juicy hamburger to balance off the dry tannins.Tasted: 17 September 2015Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $19.90 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA wine stores, private wine shops |
