Nichol Vineyard Nine Mile Red 2015
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaJuicy and bright, this is a unique blend of pinot noir (80 percent-ish) and st. laurent. Spicy, fresh, brisk and and pink peppercorn fill this light, smashable, chillable red. Leather lined, with sapid cherry, plum, tight peppercorn along crunchy acids to the finish. Like Nichol's wines, soft on approach and understated, but satisfying. Nine Mile was the original name of Naramata Village.Tasted: 27 September 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
