Fitzpatrick Sudden Inversion Meritage 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis year's Meritage sources 65% Merlot, 15% Cab Sauv, and 20% Cab Franc from Maverick Vineyards in the Southern Okanagan. Each lot was native fermented separately prior to aging 14 months in French oak (16% new). Tart cassis, crunchy cherry, earthy plum work their way through a soft palate, with sticky bitter chocolate tannins leading this to a warming finish. Crack into now with grilled root veg / pork chops.Tasted: 09 August 2023Tasted by: Prices:
