Chronos Merlot 2020
British Columbia, CanadaWinemaker Lynzee Schatz ferments with a touch of carbonic maceration to help accentuate the dark red fruit. With only 20 percent new French oak, the plummy florals jump from the glass before a spicy finish. You can drink this now with grilled pork or beef, but you may want to wait for two to three more years. Well done, and definitely a wine that explains what merlot can be in BC.Tasted: 27 July 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $29.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
