Noble Ridge Reserve Meritage 2020
Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Home Vineyard in Okanagan Falls is the source of the 2020 Reserve Meritage, a rich mix of 74% merlot, 24% cabernet sauvignon, and 2% malbec. This ripe, spicy, desert red pitches blackcurrant, tobacco, and dried wild herbs with some sticky tannins and a warm finish. This can handle lamb, pork, or beef at this point, and should age effortlessly into 2027. It spent 14 months in 70% French and 30% American barrels (27% new).Tasted: 09 May 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $42.99 | 750ml | winery direct, select private wine stores |
