Laughing Stock Vineyards Blind Trust Red +10/10 2008
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWarm peppery, cherry/coffee/chocolate nose with bits of black olive, vanilla, liquorice root and savoury aromas. The entry is fresh with light, grainy tannins that preview a smoky, vanilla, chocolate, espresso, cherry red with flecks of worsteshire, grilled meat, black olive and dried herbs. Solid but quite oaky and somewhat short in mid-palate concentration (young vines?). We like the price and quality and high merlot content and expect this wine will continue to gain in weight and power in the bottle. Theblend is 78/13/9 merlot, malbec and cabernet sauvignon.Tasted: 29 August 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $29.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
