Bartier Bros. Cabernet Franc Cerqueira Vineyard 2017
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis cabernet franc, from Black Sage Terrace's Cerqueira Vineyard, is splashed with 12 percent merlot, native fermented, on skins for 24 days and bottled unfined and unfiltered after a year in French oak. Ripe, soft and plush with plump blackberries, black plum, pipe tobacco and franc's characteristic herbaceousness. Tannins are velveteen, cushioning the sunbaked fruit to a warm, baking spice finish. If you like your big reds on the softer side, crack this.Tasted: 18 September 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $25.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
