Lunessence Merlot 2017
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA solid look at a more refreshing merlot style replete with red fruit. The attack is appealing with its juicy cherry and spice until some relatively grippy tannins kick in, signalling youth and rusticity. The wine spends six months in a mix of French, Slavonian and Hungarian oak, and six months in stainless steel. Lamb and beef are the call but have some fun with kabobs with peppers.Tasted: 18 April 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $29.99 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops, restaurants |
