Haywire Merlot 2025
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis is a fresh take on Okanagan merlot, from 40-year-old Naramata vines, fermented in concrete. The attack blends black and blue fruits with an earthy, smoky, iron undercurrent. The texture is silky smooth and mouth-filling, with notes of red plum, leather, and savoury herbs in the finish. Juicy and ready to drink, this is a food-friendly merlot you can serve with the likes of burgers, grilled sausages, or mushroom dishes — an affordable midweek red.Tasted: 21 October 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $24.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, restaurants |
