Tasting note
This full-bodied red wine from Hess Collection Winery offers lovely intense flavours of mocha, plush plums and berries. So very tasty and happy. Perfect for movie night. Terrific concentration, depth and richness with a satisfyingly long finish. Try it with hearty meat dishes. Pair with: gorgonzola topped sirloin, grilled veggies, herb-crusted poultry, hearty meat dishes, hard cheese. Drink: 2014-2019. Score - 93. (Natalie MacLean, nataliemaclean.com, Dec. 2014)
This dry and purplish red coloured red showcases a complex nose releasing woody, empyreumatic, spicy, fruity and vegetal scents. You will be charmed with this medium-bodied wine revealing a broad texture, fleshy tannins and a medium finish.
*Available only in the BC Liquor Store at the Vancouver International Wine Festival Feb. 26-28, 2015.*
