Desert Hills Mirage 2012
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAnother red with some bottle age, which is always good thing when you are working with Bordeaux varieties. In this case, the big five are present, but the overall impression is something simple. There is plenty of spicy and herbal savoury notes but the cedar, coffee, tobacco leaf aromas and flavours lack substance and length. Dry, round, supple and ready to drink. Try this with hamburgers or stews to best effect.Tasted: 05 September 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $36.95 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
