Dostana Merlot 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaDostana grapes are from Oliver, and the wine is aged for 30 months in new Odysé (American oak) barrels of medium and medium+ toast. The attack is earthy, with dry, spicy notes in the lead. The palate is similar, with peppery red cherry and rustic dry tannins in the finish. It needs drinking now, and less time in oak next time out.Tasted: 02 April 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
