Wild Goose Merlot 2012
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFresh, menthol minty smoky cedar nose with savoury, gamy hints. The attack is round upfront with an immediate buildup of tannins from front to back under notes of black cherry, resin, licorice, tobacco leaf and sour cherry flavours. Tart savoury spicy notes mark the finish. This really needs some time in the bottle, two to three years, or a piece of grilled meat at the moment.Tasted: 17 September 2015Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | winery direct, vqa and private wine stores |
