A Celebration of Merlot
Merlot is known for its rich, velvety texture, luscious dark fruit flavours, and smooth tannins, making it one of the most loved red varietals in the world.
The timeless Merlot grape has adapted beautifully to our Lillooet terroir. Our winemaker Alessandro (Alex) Nel loves how our warm days and cold nights develop very concentrated flavours of red fruit, plum, cherry, and herbs. Our cooler and extended growing season keeps the tannins soft and juicy with a lovely, smooth finish. Grapes from our mature Dry Creek Vineyard, planted more than a decade ago, provide structure and mouthfeel to our Merlots. Grapes from our younger Red Rock Vineyard offer lovely aromatics and fruit-forward notes to our Merlots.
Enjoy three of our finest expressions of this classic grape in a special Merlot feature 6-pack:
2 x Small Lot Merlot 2021 – Fruit-forward and expressive, medium-bodied with a velvety finish
2 x Merlot Reserve 2021 – Elegant and luscious, with soft and smooth tannins and a lingering finish
2 x Meritage 2021 – A Merlot-predominant blend highlighting Merlot’s versatility and richness
Tasting three distinct expressions of Merlot allows you to explore the nuances of this beloved varietal. From the refined elegance of our Small Lot Merlot, to the bold complexity of our Merlot Reserve, and the artful blending of Merlot in our Meritage, each offers a unique perspective on its depth, character, and aging potential.
