Hesketh Touriga 2014
Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaOne of the darling surprises of this year's Vancouver International Wine Festival, this charming, likeable, drinkable (hell - quaffable) touriga from Barossa exemplifies Mod Oz wine. Hugely floral, with perfumed blue fruits and florals, this smooth, juicy and lengthy wine flows with mulberry, violet musk candies, cool plum and blueberry. Touriga's tannins are present, but dusky and plush and the acidity moderate, lifting the scented fruit. Very interesting, and would make a good partner for berry jus beef or lamb or kabobs.Tasted: 18 March 2015Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $25.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Select Wines & Spirits |
