Classic Cabernet through and through — think rich cassis, hints of mint chocolate and a touch of tobacco leaf.

The Smokin Barrels "Butch" Merlot offers a bold and smooth flavor experience. This full-bodied red boasts rich oak and chocolate notes, a velvety texture, and a long, complex finish.

Grapes from different vineyards were picked separately when they reached an optimum level of flavour. Each parcel was cold macerated for five days and fermented in open-top fermenters. This wine is deep red with a vibrant purple hue. It has bright aromas of rich blackcurrant, subtle spice, tomato leaf and a touch of cassis and violets. The palate shows vibrant ripe blackberry flavours and nutty toasted oak. The tannins are fine and elegant giving the wine length and poise
