Description
Peller Estates Proprietors’ Reserve Merlot is crafted from select Merlot grapes grown in the Niagara Peninsula, a region known for its cool climate and fertile soils that contribute to the development of rich and complex flavors in the wine. The wine presents a ruby purple color and offers a bouquet of black fruit and cocoa, complemented by subtle notes of fresh herbs. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious blend of juicy red and black berries, cherry, spice, and oak, resulting in a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. The extra-dry finish is characterized by lingering notes of black tea, blackberry, currant, sweet spice, and a touch of chocolate, providing a satisfying conclusion to each sip. With soft drying tannins and balanced acidity, this medium-bodied red wine is approachable and versatile, making it suitable for both casual and formal occasions. It pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, including duck breast in a rich red wine reduction and grilled medium-rare steak. Peller Estates, established over 50 years ago, has a legacy of producing wines that reflect the unique terroir of Canada, and the Proprietors’ Reserve Merlot is a testament to their commitment to quality and craftsmanship.​
