Dunham Froese Merlot, Okanagan Valley, 2007
Readers rated this wine:
Dunham Froese is located on the 700 acre Covert Farms land at the base of McIntyre Bluff near Okanagan Falls. They embrace sustainable and organic farming practices and continue to impress BC wine drinkers with their wines.
The 2007 Merlot bucks the trend of the massive, extracted versions I have been tasting recently and aims for a bit more elegance. Expect red fruit, cedar chips, saddle leather and wild herb aromas on the nose with undertones of chocolate. The palate is a bit austere, it's medium-bodied and earthy with good acidity and flavours of red berries, spicebox, forest floor and cocoa.
