Quails' Gate Old Vines Foch Reserve 2009
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAnother year another classic foch reserve. Rich gamey cedar-y meaty this wine has bit of the 'it' factor that compensates for its lowly DNA. The flavours are big mixing espresso and cedar with game, spice and leather. The finish is fresh with a good dollop of toasted oak. Try this with venison.Tasted: 09 February 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
