Oliver Twist Meritage Proprietor's Reserve 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis Meritage is predominantly Osoyoos East Bench cabernet sauvignon with a splash of merlot and malbec, aged one year in French and American barriques before 18 months in the bottle prior to release. Ripe and juicy blackberry, black plum, cassis fill a juicy palate, with ample grippy, strained, pinched tannins pinning in the sides to a very drying finish. The wood still overrides the fruit, as dense as it is, and requiring a hearty veg or beef stew to match.Tasted: 16 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
