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

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

Great bang for my buck! Probably overly-fruity for some meals, but for the price, this can't be beat. — 5 years ago

Hodder Hill Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2014

So not much has changed in 3 yrs since first trying this in the tasting room. The profile is lean and linear. 69 CS 16 Merlot and the rest PV. This clearly the weakest build of Jeff’s run of left bank builds. The 2014 was classic, so not huge numbers for the CS. THE TEXTURE IS LOVELY though. ;) 90+ for sure, keeping the streak ALIVE!! — 4 years ago
