Cherry compote and vanilla jump out of the glass followed by a mild fruitcake-like spice. Merlot's round and plush mouthfeel is exaggerated with this vintage, with an opulence that is rare to find in Niagara. This wine is very approachable in its youth, but will age gracefully for the next 5-10 years. Riverview’s Reserve Series identifies our top wines from premium growing seasons. Named after proprietors Sam and Lina Pillitteri, Reserve wines reflect family pride in viticulture and winemaking. Made in very limited quantities. The product of hard, dedicated work.
