Moon Curser Border Vines 2019
Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBorder Vines is a cabernet sauvignon-dominant blend, fleshed out by cabernet franc, petit verdot, malbec, and carmenere. From three vineyards on the Osoyoos East Bench, the 2019 vintage shows rich dark berry fruit complemented by sweet spices after aging in a combination of French and American oak (20% new). It's lifted by purple florals, an aromatic trademark you can find across Moon Curser's red program. Medium-bodied with juicy freshness, the grippy, powdery tannins suggest this could benefit from another couple of years in bottle, or fire up the grill now and throw on some ground chuck burgers.Tasted: 12 July 2021Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:BC | $28.99 | 750ml | winery direct, select private wine shops and limited restaurant |
