| Deep intense purple colour. Very attractive, ripe plum-cherry puree nose with some gently cedar-sandalwood notes and a hint of mocha-chocolate. Dry, medium bodied, well structured, harmonious, intense, ripe, fresh plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, gently cedary finish. A versatile, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser. This new blend of 83% Merlot and 17% Syrah has 14.5% alcohol and 5 g/L residual sugar. TONY ASPLER / 90-points / BEST BUY - Cedary, spicy plum and vanilla oak note on the nose; medium-bodied, dry, herbal, blackcurrant and plum flavours; lively acidity with a firm finish.

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Raspberry, cocoa, coffee and vanilla aromas lead to plump, focused fruit flavors. It's both appealing and quite varietally correct. For those looking for a quality value Merlot, look no further. Score - 89 (Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 1, 2017) |
