Karlo Estates - Merlot 2008

Merlot 2008

Our 2008 Merlot was picked December 5th, almost six weeks later than usual. This additional hang time has yielded a wine with an inky deep garnet colour. The nose unveils intense cherry and black olives with a hint of coco and nutmeg. Rich and jammy this wine portrays new world fruit with old world complexity and structure. A reserved use of Canadian Oak leads to a long finish.

Bright and Bouncy. A youthful magenta with a tint of purple.  The nose exudes aromas of black cherry, raspberry, tobacco leaf, white pepper and earth accompanied by expressive floral notes. Light to medium-bodied and poised to please, our `08 merlot offers a flavourful palate of recurring cherry, plum, violet and spice on a moderately tannic chassis.
