It pays to cellar #bcwine, as proven by '07 @PaintedRockWine Merlot. Smoky tobacco & dark cherry - with a finish a mile long.

Painted Rock Merlot from Okanagan Valley, BC. Like a velvet glove with black cherry, plum, mocha dust and soft silky tannins. Amazing.

Lots of cherry and oak flavour to start. Opens up and gets a bit smoother as it breathes.

Lots of ripe, dark fruits, an herbal character, chocolate, coffee and leather. Will age well!

Nice acidity, smooth tannins with lots of black fruit and chocolate. Great pairing with baby back ribs

Classic merlot with smooth but present tannins and lots of dark berries. Some earthiness to this wine.
