Mayhem Cabernet Merlot 2022
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis blend of 92% merlot and 8% cabernet franc comes from Osoyoos' Anarchist Mountain Vineyard (planted 1994) and Oliver's Ryegrass Road Vineyard (planted 2009). All was destemmed into stainless for co-fermentation, with two weeks on skins before heading to French oak for 11 months. Wild blackberry, cassis, and dark plum are kissed with smoke and wrapped with sticky tannins. A juicy palate welcomes pairing with grilled burgers or ribs.Tasted: 13 August 2024Tasted by: Prices:BC | $24.44 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
