Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaTasted two years along, this singular St. Laurent is even more impressive now than it was then. From a small plot on their home block, this bright, slight red is flush with perfumed plum, black raspberry, gripped with fine thorny tannins and a granite buzz through to a white pepper finish. Finessed and finely defined, this is a delight. What a gem.Tasted: 27 August 2020Tasted by: Prices:
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis is my first time trying Nichol's st. laurent solo, my usual familiarity with it in the popular Nine Mile Red blend. Turns out they made a little solo st. in 2012 as well. Bright, lifted, fresh, sapid, and tight, with wild blackberry, thorns, crunchy acids and fine tannins. Rinsed with white pepper and a wash of stony salts, this lighter red finishes with a lick of blue florals. Interesting fresh red ready to add into your drinking lexicon.Tasted: 27 September 2018Tasted by: Prices:
