Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaYou feel the heat in the 2014 right from the start and through the finish. Coffee and smoky toasted oak mark the nose, with plenty of ripe black cherry fruit. The entry is soft and round but with a fair amount of sweetness in its warm, spicy, milk chocolate and black fruit flavours. More California than BC this year which may have wide appeal. Ready to drink. Consider this around the barbecue red with ribs and or burgers.Tasted: 11 August 2016Tasted by: Prices:

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAt once ripe and full, as well as bitter and tart, this rustic merlot is missing the knitting of vintages past as well as merlot's welcome hug. Earthy branch, blackberry, plum and cola notes are hewed with a splintered cedar and dusted with bitter cocoa notes before a violet candy perfume. Drink up now with sauced meatballs over polenta, or juicy beef burgers.Tasted: 11 August 2016Tasted by: Prices:
