Henry of Pelham Speck Family Reserve Baco Noir 2023
Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThe Speck Family Reserve Baco Noir comes off the family's oldest plantings on their estate, started in 1984 in silty clays. This aged in a combination of new and 1-2 years old American barriques, then partially finished in 5000L oak foudres for a combined 12 months. Baked mulberry, blackberry jam, espresso is met with a super tart cassis acidity, slicing the heft here, and finishing with toast and cracked pepper. Tannins are soft and plumped, making this wine ready to drink now. Partner with the BBQ.Tasted: 01 June 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $24.95 | 750ml | winery direct |
