Volcanic Hills Eruption 2015
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaEruption is a 53/37/10 mix of merlot, cabernet sauvignon, and cabernet franc grown in sandy/gravel soils in Osoyoos and Oliver. It spends 14 months in a blend of French and American oak. This wine is already stepping up at seven years old and from a solid vintage. Blackberries, plum, toasted oak, sweet vanilla and spice permeate a fragrant nose. On the palate, the mature blackberry, black licorice, and chocolate sit over supple tannins, toasted oak, and a warm, spicy finish. A savoury underside pulls the fruit back in, leaving a food wine.Tasted: 14 March 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $49.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
