Ravine Vineyard 2010 Meritage - Estate
Whoa Nelly! This is one really good wine for the price. 2010 from all accounts could rival 2007 for the best vintage Ontario has ever seen, which usually means the reds will be fantastic, and this blend speaks volumes as to those rumours being right on the money. The nose has plenty to get excited about, with aromas of raspberry and strawberry-licorice ... it's just so intense and pretty to sniff upon; but wait, that's not all - the palate has yet to have its' say - and it speaks volumes as well. Ripe fruit, both red and black with the right amount of elegance, weight and spice. The acidity is nice and clean with a pleasant mineral component that runs right through the middle giving it enough chalkiness without being totally drying. Let me help you out here by saying there's the right amount of juiciness in here too. This wine is ready to drink now but should easily age 5+ years. Price: $24.95 - Rating: **** 1/2
