Bartier Bros. Merlot Cerqueira Vineyard 2022

Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA fresh, juicy Merlot reflective of the more moderate 2022 vintage, coming from the winery's Cerqueira Vineyard on the Black Sage Terrace in Oliver, BC. It shows cocoa dusted cherry, red plum, resinous herbs, and earth, leading to a medium bodied palate with crisp acidity. The fruit feels ready to go, but the firm tannins will benefit from BBQ ribs or brisket.Tasted: 22 March 2025Tasted by: Prices:
