Jackson-Triggs 2002 Proprieters Reserve Merlot

I went to the butchers after I left the office and found a lovely thick rib eye steak, so a Merlot was a natural wine selection. As I searched through the wine racks, I chanced upon the J-T '02 Merlot. This particular bottle was a Christmas gift from Judy. She swears she bought it just because it was from BC and it had my initials (JT) on the foil.

The wine is everything that you would want in a Merlot. A beautiful deep colour and big legs. Hints of black cherry and plum with notes of chocolate and tobacco. Very clean finish. Definitely a keeper.
