Black Hills Nota Bene 2016
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2016 is easily the most elegant Nota Bene I have encountered, no doubt aided by a very controlled 13.5 alcohol. Certainly, it's fresher upfront and brighter, but still with some stingy spice and wild herbs that punctuate its red and black current flavours, finishing with savoury, south Okanagan sage and resiny graphite notes. Lay this down for five years if you can wait.Tasted: 23 August 2018Tasted by: Prices:BC | $59.90 | 750ml | winery direct and private wine shops |
