2022 Premier Merlot
Twist on a Classic
Our Premier reds are a marriage of mature vines, careful cultivation, traditional winemaking techniques and innovative technology.
Harvested from our Southern Okanagan Vineyards, the 2022 Premier Merlot is a beautiful ruby purple colour with elegant aromas and fruit flavours. On the nose, notes of vanilla, cherry, and plum compliment a full mid palate, followed by blackberry and ripe raspberry. On the palate there is a kiss of sweetness that fades into the back with a dry finish.
From the 2022 vintage the Premier Merlot was the only of the Premier reds we were able to produce from the challenging growing season. Frost, snow and freesing temperatures came over night.
