Description
Picture yourself on the rolling benches of Naramata in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley, where Lake Breeze Vineyards draws from the land to create reds that pulse with natural vibrancy. Their Meritage stands out as a testament to letting the fruit shine through, building a devoted crowd of Canadian wine enthusiasts who seek that pure connection to place.
This 2020 Lake Breeze Meritage pours a vivid deep ruby into your glass, releasing scents of lush black cherry and plum laced with subtle smoky oak notes. Take a sip and feel its full-bodied presence unfold across the palate—supple tannins weave through dark berry richness and a whisper of spice, all balanced in a firm, elegant frame. Unfiltered for maximum expression, it lingers with a savory close that invites contemplation.
A harmonious gathering of 45% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Malbec, this Canadian red blend from British Columbia captures the subregion's distinct character at 14% ABV in a standard 750 ml bottle. Natalie MacLean awarded it 91 points, praising its smoky, toasty profile, full body, juicy layers, and impressive depth—a nod to its standout quality among BC reds.
Bring it to the table with grilled ribeye for a match where the wine's ripe tannins amplify the char and juices, or pair alongside rosemary lamb chops to echo the herbal lift. Even roasted portobello mushrooms find a perfect foil in its robust layers, turning any meal into a celebration of bold flavors.
Whether stocking your cellar or planning tonight's feast, the Lake Breeze Meritage from Okanagan Valley delivers reliable finesse and fruit purity in every bottle. A go-to for fans of Naramata Bench reds, it promises satisfaction sip after sip.
