Dark Horse Vineyard Meritage

Inniskillin Okanagan 2008 Dark Horse Vineyard Meritage

88 Points

Cassis, peppery, tobacco, olive, spicy herb and cherry aromas. Dry, full, round and slightly chunky palate, with smoky, tobacco and meaty flavours and espresso and vanilla notes on the finish. A bit too chewy and oaky, but it has good concentration and complexity. Needs 2 to 4 years of aging.
