Stag's Hollow Hart 2014

16/20

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaVery rich, sweet, and firey, like boozy Christmas cake (complete with rum butter) set aflame. Thankfully there's a frame of tannins to help hold all in place, and a raft of acidity to counter. The full palate carries sugarplums and vanilla cassis compote to a spiced finish. This is made of super ripe Merlot from Osoyoos East Bench, harvested in October 2013. Half way through fermentation (and to preserve the sugars) it was dosed with barrel aged grape spirit, and he free run wine was then drawn off, and the wine was then left to mature for 24 months before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. Take with the aforementioned Christmas cake, or rich dark chocolate and raspberry dessert.Tasted: 31 October 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
