Bench 1775 Cabernet Franc Malbec 2013
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAn expressive nose of cracked pepper, cassis, anise and cured meats handily leads you to this medium bodied red, a very unique cabernet franc/merlot blend. Fragrant blue and purple florals, blueberry, wild herbs, bramble, plum and bright cassis notes swirl on the smooth, supple palate, with tannins finely powdered and acidity lifted. An interesting wine with well woven layers of flavour, and a fine wine to serve alongside Moroccan or Indian spiced lamb.Tasted: 02 July 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $34.50 | 750ml | winery direct, private and VQA wine shops |
