Palatine Hills Neufeld Vineyard Meritage 2010

Alluring aromas of cherry, mint, earthiness and cedar abound. A structured, balanced and tangy wash of red cherry and lively currant bathes the palate wreathed in good moderating acidity and piquant spice. It's mid weight with good mouth feel persisting through the finish with a mellow, lip-smacking aftertaste layering on wisps of black plum and red currant galore. Good to go now with a mound of slow-roast pork. Score - 4 Stars (out of 5 (Wines of excellence)). (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Aug. 14, 2013)
