Road 13 Seventy-Four K 2011
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSeventy-Four K is a 46/45/ m and syrah with viognier, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and mourvèdre from Black Sage Bench, upper and lower, the Golden Mile and Cawston's upper bench. It's a cool vintage but the blend seems to rise above the challenge. The nose is very smoky and showing plenty of oak toast after spending twelve months in French and American Oak. Look for a dark colour and despite more oak and toast a svelte black fruit undercarriage with refinement and balanced. The finish is long and well balanced with dried herbs and chocolate notes. This need five years more age in bottle or you can serve it now with a big piece of grilled meat.Tasted: 13 December 2015Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $25.00 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA wine shops |
