I tasted this one during one of the classes I teach – I love listening to students tell me they are not fans of a certain type of wine and changing their minds … this 2011 Inniskillin number turned a lot of heads from the nose to the palate. Smells of cherry, plum, red currant and vanilla; palate is smooth and fully red-fruit, mainly cherry, along with some plum – supple and silky this Merlot shows some real finesse and is integrated well between the wood, fruit and acidity for easy drinking enjoyment.
