91 points/'Editors' Choice,' Wine Enthusiast: "Vanilla, cocoa, barrel spice, cherry and licorice aromas are followed by smooth, velvety cherry and chocolate flavors. Dark chocolate notes linger on the finish. It's a classically Januik style wine, full of flavor and polish. It will only get better with time in bottle. Alcohol 14.4%. (Nov 2020)"
Producer notes: "95% Merlot; 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Our Columbia Valley Merlot includes grapes from Klipsun, Champoux, Obelisco and Bacchus vineyards. This supple, medium-bodied Merlot shows layers of black cherry, boysenberry and plum notes in the nose that translate into fleshy black fruit and chocolate flavors in the mouth. Brimming with trmendous amount of texture and length, this wine should age gracefully for a minimum of 10-15 years. 577 cases produced."
