Kismet Estate Mantra 2020
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAn excellent vintage and 44% merlot is a good way to start a BC blend. The remainder includes cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, petit verdot, and malbec. The winery chose the moniker Mantra, a sacred Indian word that embodies spiritual power and is often used as an object of concentration. On the palate its mostly blackberries and black cherries dusted in coffee and tobacco notes. An easy sipping, oaky style you can drink now with burgers or beef tacos.Tasted: 01 July 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $33.99 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA and private wine shops |
