Gray Monk wines ~ Okanagan
March 5, 2010
Gray Monk Gewurztraminer
Yellow green in hue, this wine has distinctive and powerful aromas of herbal spice, fresh melon and ripe peaches. The flavours are exceptionally complex, showing notes of lichee, melon, tropical fruits and even a suggestion of Earl Grey tea. The finish is crisp and fresh, with notes of spice that linger on the palate. Serve chilled, this wine is appealing on its own, with salads or Asian cuisines. $19.95*

A rich, full-bodied Merlot, with concentrated fruit ~ flavours of currants, blackberries, liquorice ~ and long ripe tannins. This wine will only improve with aging.
