Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe V 2016 is a blend of five Naramata grapes from two vineyard sites all within 2km from the winery. The 39/22/17/11/11/ merlot, cabernet franc, malbec, cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot is a bold, juicy, spicy, black-fruited red that finishes with warm, savoury, balsamic tones. It’s somewhat loud but with all the tools to please. If you are a fan of big hedonistic powerful red blends a la Napa Valley, this is it. Cellar for five years or serve now with rich grilled meat dishes.Tasted: 04 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
