Lock & Worth Merlot 2022

This is not what you may have come to expect from Okanagan Merlot. Light to medium in body they do not try to make a big or heavy wine here. Despite the fact that this single vineyard produces amazing and serious fruit which could handle extended time in barrel they feel the wine should highlight the inherent fruit qualities and not oak or heavy extraction. Bright, light ruby. Sweet red plums, savoury herbs, fine tannins and refreshing acidity. Medium-bodied, supple and driven. This wine is unfined and unfiltered.
