Smooth and fruity, yet complex and complete, this excellent wine offers ample acid and polished tannins around pretty red fruits. Notes of citrus and spice, tobacco and toast linger through a satisfying finish.

One of B.C.'s best Merlots, this really shines in 2012. Supple, smoky and harmonious, it boasts lush blackberry and plum fruit, decorated with baking spices and a finishing streak of sea salted caramel. It's smooth, medium weight, and perfectly balanced.
