Stag's Hollow Simply Noir 2020
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPredominantly pinot noir, Simply Noir is a mix of preserved cherries, kirsch, chestnut, lilac, and dried rose petals, sweet and earthy simultaneously, with just a touch of alcohol heat. The blend is pinot noir, some rounded merlot, easy-going gamay, and a touch of dolcetto. The texture is light, showing some complex, fresh, and savoury cherry intensity. Simple, balanced, and easy, it also includes a tangy cherry cough drop. The alcohol is slightly elevated, but the fruit keeps up with it. After fifteen minutes in the glass, it softened and spread its wings nicely. The finish lingers with a last savoury fruit note and a farewell glimpse of dolcetto tang.Tasted: 07 October 2023Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $23.00 | 750ml | winery online, grocery, VQA and select private retailers |
