Canoe Ridge Vineyard 2012 The Expedition Merlot, Horse Heaven Hills, $15
By Great Northwest Wine on June 20, 2014
Best Buy! A hedonistic addition of Syrah (14%) makes this an especially easy drinking Merlot from not only Canoe Ridge Vineyard but also Wallula and Alder Ridge vineyards. Whiffs of cherry sauce, ripe raspberry, cocoa and barbecue spices guide you into a plush drink of sweet red fruit and dark chocolate. Modest tannins and juicy acidity make this mighty enticing and a crowd pleaser.
Rating: Excellent
Production: 12,500 cases
