Moraine Meritage 2019
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis is a bright, restrained blend of merlot, cabernet franc, and malbec that shows an appealing combination of red and black fruits, with blackberry and cherry alongside violets and cedar. The oak is forward but finely integrated, adding toasted spices that work nicely with the fruit. Medium bodied with lively acidity and fine grained tannins, this is well balanced in a style that's approachable yet serious, with gravelly mineral undertones. Well made and distinctive.Tasted: 04 August 2021Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA stores, private liquor stores |
