Black Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA first release for Black Hills, so I guess that explains the $100 price tag. Only one barrel was made, presumably the best of what would have gone into Nota Bene. It spent two years in new French oak and it tastes like it. Ample purple florals, perfume, sweet bluberry, dense coffee, ample peppery spicing. There is plenty of stuffing and some savoury notes but there isn’t a lot of life in the fruit. Rich, warm, round and a touch soupy. There will be a market for this but at this price there is plenty of competition offering more finesse.Tasted: 23 January 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $100.00 | 750ml | wine club members only |
