Howling Bluff Sin Cera 2010
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOpen coffee, chocolate, vanilla nose with black cherry, black olive, tobacco and dried herb aromas. Dry, round, tart, somewhat lean palate tempered by chalky tannins. Smoky, tomato concassé, tobacco, cherry, black olive, savoury, espresso, meaty, resin flavours. Solid fruit but the finish is lean and a bit on the tart side. Best with grilled meats now or another year in the bottle.Tasted: 23 July 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $29.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
