Oak Grove Vineyard Dry Muscat Ottonel 2018

2018 vintage. Less aromatic than I was expecting, but maybe because it's got a couple of years? White grapefruit, chalk, white strawberry, lemon pith, green grape, white tea. Tasty and refreshing. Would appeal to Sauv Blanc fans. — 4 years ago

Beautifully balanced this layered Merlot shows delightful hints of dark chocolate, pepper with traces of vanilla. A proud Canadian spending 21 months in French oak then aged another 12 months before its release it is a prime example of how far the Okanagan wines have come in and finally earning the right to be on the stage of truly great wines.

@Trixie Trixie this is a good one reasonably priced in BC but a little pricey in AB but still worth a taste if you enjoy Merlot Cheers 🍷🇨🇦

@Phil A I'm always looking for a new Merlot to serve friends when they come to our place. So I welcome any recommendations from my friends here. 🍷

@Trixie Trixie understand that my wife and I are partial to BC wines that being said I would suggest the Burrowing Owl Estate Merlot. It’s one of our BC favourites Cheers 🍷

Dark yellow on color. Definitely mellowed more but oaky. Interesting to try a later vintage. This was ok but may have been a bit too aged. — 3 years ago

Still a great Merlot but lots of dark fruit and feels alcoholic/hangover inducing. Their wines recently need to sit much longer than in the past. — 4 years ago
