MAJOR ALLAN MERLOT Okanagan Valley BC VQA
History: Noted naturalist and artist Allan Brooks (1879-1946) contributed greatly to the study of North American wildlife through prolific paintings and illustrations, many of which are now in museum collections across the continent.
Tasting Notes: Our 2009 Merlot
shows lovely aromas of plum, blackberry and dark cherry. The palate is rich and
satisfying with notes of dark berries, chocolate, licorice and vanilla.
Food Pairing Notes: A soft and round pleaser with plenty of red fruit. This Merlot is perfectly paired with warm comforting foods. Try roasted root vegetables, smoked pork roast or a hearty turkey-based chili.
