Infusion of natural Sicilian lemon peels, without the addition of artificial flavours and colouring.The taste is typical of lemon peels.The taste is clean,crisp, intensely lemony, and just plain brilliant,wow!

Laughing Stock Blind Trust Red 2012 Merlot Blend

Laughing Stock Blind Trust Red 2012 Merlot Blend

Happy Canada Day everyone! I am also celebrating our west coast and the stunning Okanagan Valley, with a winery situated in the desirable sub region of the Naramata Bench. The Naramata Bench boasts ideal conditions for ripening Merlot and Bordeaux varieties. And believe me this is no laughing matter, the winery Laughing Stock strives everyday not to live up to its unfortunate name! Lol

My wine is the Laughing Stock Blind Trust Red 2012 Merlot Blend, and what’s cool about this wine, is the winery encourages you to have a Blind Trust in the wine by not disclosing the varietals on the label.Try it and see what you think. Its a big Bordeaux style blend.

Georgia's Wine Pick

Georgia’s Wine Pick

A very intense wine with ripe blackberry, blueberry. Medium bodied and ripe tannins. Chocolate notes and a long finish.

If you really want to know the varietals are listed, they are kept under wrap and seal of the capsule.
