“Perhaps the best merlot ever made in this country.”
— David Lawrason | Canada’s Best Wines
High praise for a wine that has quietly become one of Canada’s most iconic Merlots.
“This is the third time I have been wowed by Maestoso, the LaStella flagship. Merlot typically is all about plushness, ripeness and generosity which this captures so well. But with such genteel poise! Classic, definitive merlot aromas of blackberry/plum, subtle chocolate, licorice, fine oak spice/resin and herbs. It is medium-full bodied, so even, delicate, with very fine tannin. Not a hair out of place here. The length is excellent to outstanding.”
The 2022 vintage is one of the coolest we have experienced in more than a decade, resulting in a Maestoso that is refined, layered, and built to reward both immediate enjoyment and extended cellaring.
